Hi Ian. You can tell it to use the not-yet-existing data dir. Say you're installing to C:\ProgFiles\My17thGeoServer, if you (manually) type in the path to the data dir as:
C:\ProgFiles\My17thGeoServer\data_dir the installer will bypass the existence check and assume that you want to use the new dir as the data directory. I agree that that should probably be made more explicit. (JIRA?)
