No one ever replied to this, however I was able to find the answer on my own.
For anyone else who runs into this problem, here is the answer:
If your managed bootstrapper application is complied for .Net 4.5, your
BootstrapperCore.config needs to state the following:
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5" />
</startup>

Hi All,
I am having a very annoying problem. I have a managed bootstrapper application
which requires .Net 4.5. I have the proper PackageGroupRef in my bundle's
chain, and it installs .Net 4.5 successfully when there is no .Net installed.
The problem is that if .Net 4 is already installed I run into one of two
problems:
If in my BootstrapperCore.config I state:
<supportedFramework version="v4.5" /> I get the following every
time I run the installer no matter what:
Loading prerequisite bootstrapper application because managed
host could not be loaded, error: 0x80070490.
...
The prerequisites were already installed. The bootstrapper
application will not be reloaded to prevent an infinite loop.
If I declare any previous versions for supported framework, the installer
crashes, and never loads the prereq window.
Any ideas?
Nick
