Now, you need to clone the Lmod repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/TACC/Lmod.git
This command will download the Lmod repository to your system.
After cloning the Lmod repository, navigate to the repository's root directory using the following command:
cd Lmod
Then, run the following command to build and install the Lmod module:
sudo make install
This command will compile and install the Lmod module on your Fedora CoreOS system.
After the installation is complete, you need to update the system profile to load the Lmod module. Run the following command to open the profile file:
sudo vi /etc/profile.d/modules.sh
Add the following line to the file:

This line will load the Lmod module when the system starts.
Save and close the file.
You can test the installation by running the following command:
