I found it listed in
<URL:http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/ChangeLog-2.6.15-rc6>,
making me believe this bug was fixed in version 2.6.15, and thus
before 2.6.18. I guess we need to keep looking. This is the patch in question:

[PATCH] i2o: Do not disable pci device when it's in use
When dpt_i2o is loaded first, i2o being loaded would cause it to call
pci_device_disable, thus breaking dpt_i2o's use of the device. Based on
similar usage of pci_disable_device in other drivers.

Perhaps this isn't solved yet, and it helps to load i2o before
dpt_i2o? Not quite sure how to make that happen in the initrd.
Perhaps it is enough to edit /target/etc/modules and append this:
i2o
dpt_i2o
It will have to be tested. :)
Happy hacking,
