The frugal command does two things. It allows the superuser (user account called "root") to read and write to the boot device. It also gets rid of the "Please remove the cd, close the drawer and press ENTER" message that appears during the shutdown process. It may also do some other things, too. I don't know.
If you want to boot up with ignored xwindows settings, try booting with:
dsl frugal xsetup
and you will be prompted to set your configuration including mouse type.
When running a frugal install or a remaster, you should put your *.dsl or *.tar.gz or *.uci files inside the root directory of your storage device or cd-r disk. If you want to optionally load them, you can create a new directory called /optional inside your boot device and then store the files in this location.
