That is correct. The MVC 4 Beta installer will not run on any combination of Win8/VS11/.NET 4.5 Developer Preview. Once the VS11 Beta ships (soon) MVC 4 will be included in the VS installer. We will also release an installer that will allow you to install
MVC 4 Beta bits on the upcoming Win8 release.
