Bug? Grubby has supported grub legacy since the beginning as far as I know. Certainly
going back to Fedora 12 at least.
"Bug" came from Miller, not from me. :)
Actually I don't mind GRUB Legacy isn't supported, config is quite simple, the
same as with the extlinux.
Why the GRUB(2) is used on BIOS machines, at all?

I'm using the universally accepted grandfather name of syslinux which encompasses
extlinux and isolinux.
