I have to develop a deployment strategy for a large .NET 2005 project. The
requirements are that a user will download a "minimal" setup from our
website, click Run, and then this minimal setup will install .NET Framework
from either our website or from Microsoft's website, then install our
application from our website. The key requirement I've been given is that
the initial download and setup has to be as small as possible.

I've researched this till blue in the face. I'm seeking advice, pointers,
links, code, examples, etc

Thanks in advance.
