  • ok then say that I want to load a different file system, for example fuse. Then, do I do that using modprobe? Commented Feb 15, 2017 at 4:29
  • FUSE is a special case. From the kernel's point of view it's a filesystem driver like ext4 or xfs, but really it's a bridge to several different filesystems implemented in userspace, like ntfs-3g. Normally you'd just issue a mount -t ntfs-3g command and the necessary modules would load automatically. If you need to do it manually for some reason, modprobe fuse should work (assuming it's included in the Oracle Linux build - I'm not actually familiar with that distribution) Commented Feb 15, 2017 at 13:06
