Just ran an lshw command found that there are additional drivers used. See highlighted driver and module info below. Should I create another RFE for these or are they included in the sata_via iso we got this morning? 

Please advise.

The installer would not identify the drives on the machine as the drivers are on in the base install. Does anyone know which iso in the location https://elrepo.org/linux/dud/el8/x86_64/ contains the latest sata_via module.
