I have installed portworx before on other systems, however, this time I’m not able understand the issue and resolve it.
I have Ubuntu 20.04.3 running and downgraded the kernel to 5.4.0-91-generic as it appears that this is supported by portworks and I found the related kernel module here.
https://mirrors.portworx.com/build-results/pxfuse/for-installer/x86_64/5.4.0-91-generic/
