My build of Android-x86_64 Marshmallow 6.0.1 has GAPPS pre-installed. I.e. Google Play Services, Google Play Store, Google Chrome, Gmail and more apps. For example: Netflix, Spotify, Firefox, Aptoide App Manager, Termux and Clash of Clans. The ISO is called android_x86_64-marshmallow-6.0.1-gapps-netflix-970mb-170923.iso.

NEWS 170914
Kernel 4.13.2-x86_64-exton is my newest Slackware kernel. Kernel 4.13.2 was released by Kernel.org yesterday. (September 13, 2017).
