Short of writing your own program, this is the only mechanism in GROMACS to solvate. That's why the program is named as it is.

If you do not want to use genbox you can use the program packmol

You can use editconf, and in some way specify the position of each solvent particle. But why dont you want to use genbox or solvate?

Hi, why don`t you use these tools? there is some drawback?
