Grub Legacy on CentOS 8


I need to remotely upgrade my servers from CentOS 6.9 to CentOS 8.2. Would it be possible to boot CentOS 8.2 with Grub Legacy?

Welcome to LinuxQuestions.

The only way to upgrade from version 6-8 is a complete installation from scratch. A remote installation is not totally impossible but it depends on your hardware and if this is a vps etc.
