Summary

In this chapter, we discussed the structure of the bootstrapper bundle and how to chain different types of installers into it. We touched on how to download packages from the Internet, slipstream patches, and control rollback behavior and command-line flags passed to the installers.

In the next chapter, we will discover how to fully customize the Burn install wizard via a custom WPF user interface. This will allow you to collect new user input and add dialogs.
