Hi,
OK - I'm confused (easy thing to do) - I am attempting to setup my first bootstrap, and the FIRST item in the bootstrap is getting called, but I can't get the second Item to call - my main installer!!


Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong (BTW, if I run the MSI alone, works fine) - obviously I've obfuscated a few items
