Yes, you can pass values from the burn command line to the MSI.

Create a Burn Variable:

<Variable Name="InstallFolder" bal:Overridable="yes" />

And then pass it to your MsiPackage use an MsiProperty element:

<MsiProperty Name="INSTALLLOCATION" Value="[InstallFolder]" />

Subject: [WiX-users] Install Condition execution by Burn

I have created a bootstrapper for multiple MSI packages. Some MSI packages are 
database installers and can be run with options (through the command line). If 
an option is not specified, the installer will prompt the user to enter in the 
data.

Is there a way to execute the options from the beginning (when I run the 
bootstrapper application)?
