It is definitely possible to use GRUB legacy with CentOS 7.  I do it on
several systems.  Note that there is a bug in the current EL 7 version
of grubby which causes the initrd line to not be added to the stanza of
newly installed kernels.

Always check /etc/grub.conf before rebooting to a newly installed
kernel, particularly when doing so remotely.  :-/
