If I am not mistaken this would work not just for Frugals but rather for any Linux install, I think. Would this be correct?
If you mean using syslinux/extlinux to boot any linux “regular” install, then yes, I’m sure it can.
I looked into how to use syslinux to boot everything a little while back. What I wanted to do was to boot the one UEFI computer I have like this (frugal-only). I couldn’t figure a way to do it, unfortunately. What I did learn was that, for regular installs (since that was the only info I could find on the subject), it was more hassle than I wanted, to set up, manage, and update the bootloader manually, by myself.
So, as much as I dislike grub (grub2), it’s not worth the hassle manually setting up & maintaining on regular installs. For that, I’d just go with whatever antiX uses (just my opinion). Frugal, on the other hand, needs no maintenance, other than your normal remastering & updating the live kernel from the built-in antiX programs.
antiX on everything, since 2017
