EEPROM/Cannot open I2C device - Issue with Multiple Machines

[KayKolor]

My console has given me the following errors:

Notice: Invalid TLV header found. Using default contents. Notice: Invalid TLV checksum found. Using default contents. ONIE: Unable to find 'Serial Number' TLV in EEPROM data. ERROR: Problems accessing sys_eeprom ERROR: Cannot open I2C device ONIE: ERROR: Firmware update URL: file://lib/onie/onie-updater Failure: Unable to install image: file://lib/onie/onie-updater

I'm guessing there might be a I2C access permissions issue because I am unable to read data from I2C with onie-syseeprom command. I get this error: ERROR: Cannot open I2C device. I followed the instructions for updating ONIE from the docs using the onie-updater file that I compiled directly from the released source code package here, used in the embed process. I've experienced this same issue with two machines from two different hardware brands.
