Assuming that you are using VS.NET 2003:

1. Install the bootstrapper plug-in for VS: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&familyid=627921a0-d9e7-43d6-a293-72f9c370bd19
2. Create a setup project, which will by default include the Framework.
3. Copy the contents of the project output to a CD, which will include Setup.exe, the MSI package for your applciation and dotnetfx.exe, which is the Framework redistributable.
4. Run Setup.exe, which will check for the presence of the Framework and install it from dotnetfx.exe if it's not installed.
