Open Stack

Hi, I'm trying to install openstack Ussuri on Centos 8 hardware using
tripleo. I'm using a relatively old hardware (dell PowerEdge R620) with old
RAID controllers, deprecated in RHEL8/Centos8. Here is some basic
information:
# lspci | grep -i raid
00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation C600/X79 series chipset SATA
RAID Controller (rev 05)
02:00.0 RAID bus controller: Broadcom / LSI MegaRAID SAS 2008 [Falcon] (rev
03)

I'm able to manually install centos 8 using DUD driver from here ->
https://elrepo.org/linux/dud/el8/x86_64/dd-megaraid_sas-07.710.50.00-1.el8_2.elrepo.iso
(basically I add inst.dd and I use an usb pendrive with iso).
Is there a way to do bare metal provisioning using openstack on this kind
of server? At the moment, when I launch "openstack overcloud node
introspect --provide controller1" it doesn't recognize disks (local_gb = 0
in properties) and in inspector logs I see:

Is there a way to solve the issue? For example, can I modify ramdisk and
include DUD driver? I tried this guide:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/16.0/html/partner_integration/overcloud_images#initrd_modifying_the_initial_ramdisks

but I don't know how to include an ISO instead of an rpm packet as
described in the example.
Thank you,
Marco
