Burn seems really strict on enforcing reboots.

You can't uninstall after an install until a reboot happens when it is 
"required". It also goes the other way when you uninstall, you can't re-install 
without a reboot.

It looks like what controls this is found in \src\burn\engine\registration.cpp.

Specifically RegistrationDetectResumeType check a registry entry for a reboot 
pending flag and kicks you out of the install.

This has made it difficult to write re-install scripts that clean the install 
off and reinstall it.

Is there an easy way to bypass the "reboot pending" stuff and allow the 
installer to run anyways?

I could fiddle with the registry, but that probably isn't the approach I want 
to take. This check is probably run and set before the ba has control anyways.

Thanks
