KC868 server16 and i2C - fdcemb5 - 06-28-2025

I am trying to integrate the KC868 server 16 to add I2C hardware devices. I have done step 2
2. enable i2c for home assistant.
Add files to enable I2C
In the root of the hassos-boot partition, add a new folder called CONFIG.
In the CONFIG folder, add another new folder called modules.
Inside the modules folder add a text file called rpi-i2c.conf with the following content:
i2c-dev
In the root of the hassos-boot partition, edit the file called config.txt add two lines to it:
dtparam=i2c_vc=on
dtparam=i2c_arm=on


but i2c devices are not showing. See attached screenshot

take a photo of your config.text and your folder.

Attached are various screenshots

Note that after inserting back the SD Card into the server16, if you put it back again to computer, the CONFIG folder disappears

"Note that after inserting back the SD Card into the server16, if you put it back again to computer, the CONFIG folder disappears" this is issue. make sure you have wrote the file, maybe you you write the file again or change a new SD card.
