It really sounds like the kernel built on that distro is missing a 
number of modules. At some point it might be easier to try with another 
distro, rather than hack this one into shape?

On my Pi4 (8GB), I'm using the RPI4 UEFI boot image on a small MicroSD 
card:

     https://github.com/pftf/RPi4

This allows me to boot generic aarch64 images, rather than RPi-specific 
images. I also have the OS entirely on a USB SSD (although the Pi can 
boot from those on it's own now, anyway)

I'm currently running Fedora 33 Server on it, and intend to relocate 
some of my "must be running" network containers to it (dns, probably 
homeassistant), to allow my main server to be used for bigger, but less 
uptimey things.

FWIW, I'm also running homeassistant container in podman on said server, 
in Fedora 33. I'm also passing through usb devices for zigbee and 
z-wave.

I'm still struggling to get behind the lifecycle model of containers, 
though.
