Hi!
Problem:
Our Setup size is around 30MB (VB6 + VB.Net hybrid application). But we wish to make some pilot setup, or whatever they call it of 10MB or less size, which can be downloaded and installed by the user. While installing this setup, the setup should download the remaining 20MB from our web-servers. This should be just like the installation of Google-Chrome browser.
How can we achieve this using InstallAware? Can anybody help me please?
Thanks in advance
how to build small setup which in turn downloads big setup?
Yup, you can do this -- we call it a Web Setup.
You can parition your project up so that some files are stored in the actual setup stub, and others are downloaded -- and you do add logic to ensure that things are only downloaded if they are not already on the users machine (for example for runtimes that are commonly distributed).

can anybody guide me how to do this?
Thanks a lot neillans for the reply. Can you please tell me how to do this? Can you refer me some document/white-paper in this regard?
Because I had tried this but couldn't succeed. In fact I really don't know how to do this partitioning.

how to create web-media blocks of my files?
Actually, what I exactly need is: "How to create custom web-media blocks. i.e. how I can create web-media block of some of my files, those I distribute in my setup, like Images and other resources?"
The white paper, "WebAware Installation Technology (Partial Web Deployment) " isn't really of any help in this regard. I had gone thru this.

yes, but how to create web-media blocks?
Hi alibaba,
thanks for your reply.
I have gone thru this document. But what I really want to know is how to create media-blocks from my files? I really couldn't get any hint in this regard from this document.
Can you help me?
Can anybody help me. I am basically not an InstallAware professional, but a developer. So this might be very simple, but I really wonder how to do it
