2011-05-25 Thread Christopher Painter
Yes, it's still the same installation ui / execute sequence.  It's just the UI will be different because conditional expressions on dialogs evaluate differently.   For example you might get a MaintenanceWelcome dialog install of an InstallWelcome dialog.   It's also important to understand the c
