How to install Centos 7 on M1064E raid controller?

Good afternoon!
It so happened that we have already bought for half a year somewhere, the old model north.
And you need to put Cent OS 7 there, but there is such a thing that the discontinued OS controller does not see it.
In CentOS 6
, it was possible to solve
esc with the command (before starting the installation)
and register
linux dd blacklist=achi
and specify where the driver should be read from.
But in CentOS 7 this does not help.
We need something like hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1taken here , but this is not for our controller.
Tell someone how can CentOS 7 specify the path to the drivers or what parameter can be set.
RAID

SCSI storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic M1064E MegaRAID SAS (rev 04)

I won’t say how with this piece of hardware in CentOS, but I installed the last Debian Jessie on it. There it is supported by the mptsas driver https://wiki.debian.org/LinuxRaidForAdmins
You may need to dig in the direction of finding this driver under CentOS.
Here is something similar https://elrepo.org/bugs/print_bug_page.php?bug_id=661

I am posting the solution. Centos does not see the disks, it does not understand what the M1064E controller is and how to "eat" it. The problem is solved by adding kmod-mptsas drivers https://centos.pkgs.org/8/elrepo-x86_64/kmod-mptsa ...
We added this rpm to the Packages folder in the default image - and oh, miracle - everything worked, centos noticed controller (more precisely, both disks and IM1, formed on the controller).
At the same time, I would like to separately note that the specified kmod-mptsas-3.04.20-3.el8_2 drivepack is generally for ... Centos 8.2, but it helped only in Centos 7. The eight could not make friends with this controller.
