ZFS failed to start

Hello,

I failed to start ZFS on CentOS 8. Can anyone help? Here is what I did:

Code:

$ sudo dnf install http://download.zfsonlinux.org/epel/zfs-release.el8_0.noarch.rpm
$ sudo dnf install epel-release
$ sudo dnf install zfs
$ dkms status
zfs, 0.8.2: added
$ sudo /sbin/modprobe zfs
modprobe: FATAL: Module zfs not found in directory /lib/modules/4.18.0-80.el8.x86_64

zfs needs to have the module built for the current kernel, on Debian the dkms does this for you when you install, I see nothing in that output that says the module was being built.
