   I'm afraid that's incorrect.  I keep a mirror of the latest Slackware   
   installation tree, so I can easily install and patch on my own systems,   
   and I see grub in the "a" subset:

   I don't know why you continue to go on about systemd.  I'm certainly not   
   a fan, but I have worked with it.  It stinks rather badly, but it can be   
   worked with, without disabling its bits.  I will not defend it, but   
   Slackware doesn't use systemd, so why complain about it here?

   On Slackware-15.0?  It's right there, in the "System" menu ... or you   
   could try the "search" field ...  you're welcome ...
