Want to learn about Setup/deployment

Does anybody know of a single source of information (book, article etc) on
setup/deployment projects? I've got the old Wrox Deployment one, but I'm
tired of never finding what I'm looking for.

Thanks for your help,

Thanks for your answer. These articles are too basic. I need something much
beefier. Especially regarding custom actions.

Examples
1) I have found how to pass parameters from User Interface dialog boxes, but
not the reserved installationparameters such as [Productname]. How, for
instance, do I pick up the installation path that the user has entered.

2) Also do a need to retort to other installers to use FileOpen dialogs or
something like that? In this particular case, the user needs to assign a
wordtemplate to an action during installlation. It would be much easier if
he/she could browse the file instead of typing or copying-and-pasting.
