Could anyone point to how to disable the onboard bluetooh? The scattered instructions refer to modifying the /boot/config.txt file but there’s not such file on my system. Tried to mount different devices also did not yield any success.
Running:
Core2025.3.2
Supervisor2025.03.2
Operating System14.2
Frontend20250306.0
It’s a Raspberry Pi 4 with the standard installation as explained at Raspberry Pi - Home Assistant
I’ve accessing the shell using the terminal frontend from the Lovelace GUI interface.

By standard installation I assume you mean HAOS?
Have you looked at this thread?
Q: Is it recommended to disable the built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth from the Raspberry Pi CM4 on Home Assistant Yellow?
All I could buy was a CM4104032, and some people seem to have issues between the built-in Wifi / Bluetooth and the Zigbee / Thread module on the Yellow.
Q: How would you do it?
I’ve enabled SSH access to the host on port 22222 and tried adding dtoverlay=disable-bt and dtoverlay=disable-wifi to /mnt/boot/config.txt, but it doesn’t seem to have any effect.
I need to investigate …

OK, leaving this one here in case anyone else has the same issue.
The easiest that I could find was to:
power down Home Assistant
remove SD card
plug the card into a Linux machine
edit /boot/config.txt file
put everything back.
