I just got a new to me dell precision t7600 and want to install centos 8 on a hdd but at the installation destination page no drives are found. There is only one drive and it is seen on the one time boot option as SAS_0_0:ST2000DM001-1CH164 and in the bios. This drive will boot to the grub menu.
This is the lspci output for the sas controller.
I don't know anyway to define the drive so the install can continue.lspci | grep -i SAS

Does anyone know how i can correct this?
Thanks

Edit -- I tried centos 6 & 7 min installs and both found the drives fine, centos 8 boot can't find them either.
