.NET Client Profile and Making a custom installer

Hey All,
I am trying to create a new installer that only depends on the .NET Client Profile. This is a new feature to VS 2008 Service Pack 1. I have seen articles where it says you can customize the deployment and the bootstrapper, but I am unsure how. Has anyone worked with this before?

Also, I created a new Deployment project, that depends on the .NET Client Profile, and when I build it it creates a .exe and a.msi which is great. How can I actually control what UI screens are displayed to the user? Is there some way in Visual studio to control what gets shown to the user during the install wizard?

Ok I figured out how to get different "Views" in the installer to set up that ui and what not.

Still a little unsure of a lot of the installer stuff. Does anyone know of a good tutorial?
