Instlux was one of the options [1] we evaluated when developing the installer-for-windows [2] specification, which was partially created to address the boot order issue. Ultimately we went with Wubi, which should be integrated in the LiveCD very soon. The functionality to fix the boot order issue has been implemented as another option in Wubi, which is the ideal course anyway as it does not make sense to have both Wubi and a modified Instlux as part of the installer. I do appreciate the intended contribution though, and I am glad that it solves the problem for your derivative.
