Play Frogger on Devuan desktop

To play Frogger, I used my Dosbox-X installation that runs Windows 98. So I guess it wasn't directly on Devuan, sorry.

I had to load up an iso file with the installer,

mkisofs -J -rock -V Frogger -o frogger.iso dir-with-frogger-installer/

And then I could configure dosbox-x.conf to load that.

[autoexec]
IMGMOUNT C hdd.img
IMGMOUNT F "/home/bgstack15/.dosbox-x/frogger.iso"
BOOT C:

And then just run dosbox-x, and install the game inside my emulated Windows environment!

It struggled with resizing the window and going full-screen, i.e., it completely failed when trying those operations. But you can just adjust the screen resolution beforehand if necessary.
