Hi, first thanks for all this work!
I’m starting with HA. I want to control I2C numerical potentiomèter.
I have do all steps and logs says all is good. But i don t know how to discover new I2C device in HA and how control them.
Thanks for this work.
I press Start after installing the addon and in the logs I only see:
s6-overlay-suexec: fatal: can only run as pid 1
What can I do?
Went with the official way, which worked perfectly:
Hi.
Same problem here.
It was working all. But after migration to ssd it failed and get error.
Cooling fan addon error . Could not find I2C Port, you must enable …etc etc . Okay no problem, enable again with the I2C config addon.
Go to addon: Hasio I2C config Addon
log error:
s6-overlay-suexec: fatal: can only run as pid 1
When I put in my old SD with HAssio. Then I2C is enabled and Fan Addon is working.
Put Back SSD with Same Backup. I2C is not found / need to enable.
Put in Boot Partition CONFIG → modules the needed txt file. en put the 2 needed lines in config.txt.
Hard Reboot 2x times (pull the plug). Put still I2C is not enabled. I can see that in SSH ls /dev. And I2C is not present.
Why This manual setup does not work? What I do Wrong?
I’m having the same issues as some other folks here: Argon1 with a SATA drive and I can no longer get i2c running. I can get the module running via modprobe, but the add-on dones’t set up i2c. It tells me it will be ready on the next boot but i2c doesn’t start up.
I got it working with the Argon One booting from a 1TB SATA SSD now by adding those three lines to /mnt/boot/config.txt
dtparam=i2c_arm=on
dtparam=i2s=on
dtparam=i2c1=on
No need for extra loading the module via /mnt/boot/CONFIG/modules/rpi-i2c.conf. Also it did not work adding those three lines to /mnt/boot/CONFIG/config.txt. I explicitly had to add them to the main config.txt
Settings initialized. Argon One Detected. Beginning monitor..

@adamoutler1 thanks for the great add-on and your work! I highly appreciate it! 
Finally, FINALLY got my i2c working. It looks like there’s an issue with boot sequence. I have USB stick with /CONFIG/ for dhcp setup, but having the rpi-i2c.config file in CONFIG/modules wasn’t working. lsmod wouldn’t show the i2c_dev module
Once I moved the rpi-i2c.config file to the modules-load.d directory then i2c worked on the next boot
I can not install it. When I add Repository there is no option to install.

Sometimes it takes a bit. The only restrictions are that you have a raspberry pi. It wont’ work with any of the X86 raspberry pi clones.
@Sylwester try a cmd+r/ctrl+r after adding the repository (I had this).
if not there
Settings > add-ons > add-on store
scroll down it is below “official add-ons” but above “Home assistant community add-ons”
Thank you. After restart I was able to install it. All good. Working. Cheers.

Hello,
I have the same problem, Pi 4b + Argone One M.2
I want to use fan control but the i2c is not working …

In the terminal, when I run:

I don’t get an i2c_dev displayed.
Where is my mistake?

Just pulled power from the Pi again and now it’s working…

Looks like hardware failure. I’d check connections.
Hi there!
Great you made activating the I2C so easy, especially for me as a HA newby.
With HA haos_rpi4-64-9.3.img.xz I can implement the Argon Temperature Control, but not the I2C
Configurator. When I try to add it to addons only the heading shows. Not more. Is there anything I am doing wrong?
'Thanks for your support`
Just want to say I very much appreciated the FAQ…lol. I needed it drilled into my head exactly how you put it there. Thank you!! ArgonOne Linear Cooling is up and running!

Thank you. I really appreciate that your first post on the forum is a compliment. I don’t think I’ve seen that before. Very refreshing. Welcome to the forums!
Hi. Hoping you can help me. I managed to successfully installed and run the “HassOS Configurator” add-on and performed the 2 reboots of Home Assistant but am unable to install the “ArgonOne Temp Control” using the repository “adamoutler/HassOSArgonOneAddon”. When I enter this repository within Home Assistant Add-on’s and click the Add button nothing happens. Is there something that I am missing?
Appreciate any assistance you can offer.
Thank you.
