You'll need to write your own bootstrapper or ExternalUI rather than use the built in Windows Installer UI.
Burn will eventually offer something similar to that experience from what I've heard/read but until it's done (which could be a while yet) your only option is to roll your own. dotnetinstaller & SharpSetup offer something similar. FYI Visual Studio has been using that bootstrapper since at least Visual Studio 2003/7.1, possibly earlier but as it's been years since I used Visual Studio 6 I can't remember what the installer is like.
