Use <Media> elements and the File/@DiskId attribute to guide the placement
of files into separate cabinets (using Media/@EmbedCab='no' to have a
separate CAB file generated).

Subject: [WiX-users] Network based installations?



[Could probably be dismissed as "Can't read the FAQ"...]

How would I approach a 'network based installation'?

Scenario is as follows: I'd like to produce a 'slim' .msi
and several .cabs (or whatever, maybe one per feature)
somewhere on the net. Then a user downloads only
the .msi, selects some features and then some machinery 
downloads the needed .cabs afterwards.

Is this (the downloading, I kind of know by now how to 
create the necessary installer files) already built-in
somehow or do I have to create the machinery by myself?

Regards,
Andre'
