why would one need old Grub-legacy?
It's only tangentially an issue of "need".
Grub2 offers me not one thing I need that Grub Legacy does not offer.
Grub2 has costs:
1-consumes far more space, both where space is plentiful, and more troubling,
where space is limited
2-needs extensive relearning by users who deign manual management of their
own bootloader configuration
3-is accompanied by dire warnings that life as we enjoy it will come to an
end if one would dare choose to install it anywhere except where a Windows
reinstallation *will* render it non-functional.
