[Zope-dev] Minor windows intaller bug and a question

[Sergey Volobuev]

Hi all,

Installing 2.7.0rc2 windows zope installer, i noticed that it uses 
hard-coded value for instance directory. The proposed value is 
"C:\Zope-Instance". However, some users (me :) don't have C: drive. For 
some reasons windows choose G: letter for boot drive and (unlike 
not-boot drives) this letter can't be changed. Most installers 
autodetect this situation but Zope installer not.

And now the question: I want to make customized Zope installer. I.e. i 
want to include some products, data in ZODB, etc. so i can give single 
exe file to my customer, he will install it and get ready-to-work site 
figurally in one click. Something like Plone installer did. So, are 
there some guidelines how it can be done (howtos, docs, scripts, etc)? 
Unfortunately, my expirience in making installers is limited to 
InstallShield usage in mid 90th :(
