I'm attempting to harden my VPS install of Plesk 17.5.3 on a Centos 6.10 base and wanted to make a separate /tmp mount using a file.
I've created the file with dd, formatted it ext3 and added it to fstab with no problem but when I try and mount the file I get the following message
I tried runing modprobe as the error suggested and gotmount: Could not find any loop device. Maybe this kernel does not know
about the loop device? (If so, recompile or `modprobe loop'.)
uname -r gives me 2.6.32-042stab127.2FATAL: Module loop not found.
running find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -name *loop* -print gives me nothing
ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r) gives
Now, I'm not totally sure, and normally work on Ubuntu servers, but I thought that this directory should contain a whole load of directories with a load of .ko files.4.0K -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 45 Oct 14 11:13 modules.alias

Am I missing something here or do I have no modules available?
