One cannot assume that the Windows 7 bootmgr files are stored on a
partition that is different from the Windows 7 system files.
If there is no existing primary partition on the boot drive that
contains the bootmgr files, and if the installer is directed to install
to an existing primary partition on that same boot drive, then the
bootmgr files and the system files will both be installed to that
existing partition.
