This request is related to 
my (false) "Bugs item #1038410"
since it is by design and it won't be fixed
I thought I could be suggested as a new feature.

Request:
Add a command line switch to be able to specify
python install directory in silent installation mode

in other word it should be something like this:

Python-X.Y.Z.exe /s /d MAINDIR=C:\some_dir\python


BTW:
IIRC the windows wise installer configuration file is not 
provided into python cvs source tree so I can only
suggest this google-groups thread as a hint:
