Just change the install target and don't use sudo.

Instead of installing it in /usr I put it in my home directory, and running ollama I get

CentOS Linux 7 was last released on 12 November 2020 and was EOL'd 30 June 2024 so there may be some library issues. You can try locate libm.so.6 or find / -xdev -name libm.so.6 to see if the missing library can be found on your system, then you would just need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the directory for ollama to find the libraries. Failing that, you can try building from source, or installing docker and running ollama in a container.
