If it's a per-user install it won't run as local system. The other issue is that I don't think your plan will work. The system account doesn't usually have any network privileges, so it can't access anything like that remote share.

The KB says If it is necessary to run your custom action when using the local system security context, set the attributes of the custom action in the CustomAction table to either 3072 (msidbCustomAction TypeInScript + msidbCustomAction TypeNoImpersonate) I've already done this, but seems it's still using the admin user's account, not the LocalSystem account. What does "using the local system security context" mean? It is not equal to "using LocalSystem account"?
