When I build a visual studio 2008 setup project, I get the following warning:

"Could not find prerequisite '.NET Framework 3.5 SP1' in path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\'"

There is not a Bootstrapper folder under my v6.0A folder. Do I need one? Is this warning important? The project's .msi file seems to work fine.

You may try to download this.

Also you may try to follow the directions in 2.3.1.1 Enable Samesite for the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 bootstrapper package

That is for creating the setup.exe which ensures all prerequisites for your application are installed. It doesn't affect your msi.

You can change your prerequisites by going to the properties of your setup project, click prerequisites button on the bottom right, and set the install location to download from the vendors site.

You can also disable the creation of this file by unchecking the top checkbox in the prerequisites window.
