I have an Orange Pi Zero 2 and I am running Debian Buster 4.9.170. I am using Buster because of software functions to operate a MiniTiouner 2.0 Digital TV / HamTV Tuner board and LONGMYND Server / Client software.

After I install the OS and try to run the OrangePi-Config, I do not see the HARDWARE selection anywhere that everyone tells me should be there. I am trying to activate the I2C Ports (0,1) to install a RTC Pi board. If I run an inquiry, I see I2C3 and I2C5, bot no I2C0 or I2C1.

I have tried to include the I2C port callouts in the orangepiEnv.txt file. That has not done anything. When I tried to query I2C0 and I2C1 it says File not found or Function not found.

If I could get the HARDWARE select function to come up, I would have half a chance at this.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

I have tried:

  1. Re-imaging Debian Buster for Orange Pi Zero 2

  2. Altering orangepiEnv.txt

  3. Enabling I2C separately

  4. Researching the internet.

  5. Googling.

  6. Inquiring with the seller of the RTC Pi board.

You may find help in the Users manual, something about installing WiringOP, then i2c will change alot. Add "overlays=i2c3" to "orangepiEnv.txt". Make an "i2c-ds1307.dts" file that fit your OS version. Add i2c-ds1307.dts file to your system. Look in the Users Manual (Not the Users guide), it is all there
