modprobe: FATAL: Module fuse not found in directory

I am trying to mount a remote dir onto my local machine using sshfs. My local is running Ubuntu 20.04. When I try:

sudo modprobe fuse

I get:

modprobe: FATAL: Module fuse not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.162-1-pve

Fuse (2.9.9-3) is installed on my local machine. The /lib path does not hold a modules/ directory.

How can I make modprobe work?

Solution

  • The remote machine is a Linux container. That explains why the modprobe command is not working.
