Another method which also resolves the dependencies:

Start setup with "--no-write-registry" option, enter some new path as 
"Root Directory" (it will be created but not written to registry), 
proceed as usual until "Review and confirm changes" dialog, copy the 
list from its textbox, abort setup and remove the newly created root 
directory.
