Web Installer project

What's involved in creating a web setup project that
installs directly in the root of a site (e.g.
inetpub\wwwroot)? The project wizard always wants to
create a virtual directory, and I don't want that.

Am I stuck having to copy the files manually?

Set the VirtualDirectory to an empty string, either in the Web Setup
project, or during install.
