Interesting approach.
But are you aware that the legacy Grub config cannot boot up frugal installed Puppy on ntfs partitions?
See the topic:

You may be interested in the Frugalinstaller, built in LupQ but usable on any Puppy 4.x/5.x.

That is not going to work very well. A lot of people like to do Frugal installs to fat and NTFS partitions to dual boot with windows. Grub4dos will do it.

Guess pupdog is assuming a case a person has an old PC and wants the whole PC for Puppy, like rcrsn51 assumes in the 'One-Click Installation'.
