[CentOS] Grub legacy on Centos 7

[Sachin Gupta]

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to use GRUB legacy with Centos 7. And it is giving me following
error.

systemd-fsck: fsck error 2(no such file or directory) while executing
fsck.ext3 for /dev/sda5
mount:unknown file system type 'ext3'.

Has anyone seen this error ?


Thanks
Sachin
