Ok, I am confused again.

I used ibrav=0 in the scf run that eventually gave me the error in matdyn.x.

I am running it again. This time I've used,

-----------------
ibrav = 6,
celldm(1) = [..]
celldm(3) = [..]
------------------

in the scf. It's good to know if this is more possible to work as ph.x  
takes about 4 days.
