Is it possible to have a bootstrapper made with burn that doesn't show any UI?
All I want my bootstrapper to do is decide what platform it's running
on (x86 or x64), extract the appropriate MSI installer from within
itself and run it. At the moment, the Burn UI takes over. Is there a
no-UI
Looks like you need to write your own BA:

The WixStdBA supports the /silent switch for no-UI installations.

You can do it in native or managed code.
Take a look at the burn solution file in the source (src\burn\burn.sln). You
can see both the wixstdba (native) and WixBA (managed) projects for
examples. I haven't come across any tutorials or anything like that though.

Fortunately you can use C++. I certainly don't like the idea of
Even with a managed bootstrapper you don't need .NET installed

That's right - Burn will bootstrap .NET first. But I just don't like the
idea of requiring extra software to be installed just for the installer.
