RHEL7 install snippet

RHEL 7 is quite outdated but we still find servers using it.

We recommend that you do not use such an outdated system to run the dashboard.

This is not something we advise, but if you must stay on RHEL 7, you can try to follow the snippet below to install the required dependencies and run the dashboard.
