Specify boot sector location when installing?

Hello,

I have a 240GB RAID 10 array and a 60GB SSD for caching. When I install Proxmox to the RAID10 array with the SSD in the server, the boot sector gets written to the SSD because it is /dev/sda. The problem with this is the SSD is not redundant, if I lose the SSD the server will not be bootable. If I install Proxmox to the RAID array with the SSD out of the server, and add it later then the server fails to boot because the SSD takes the /dev/sda name from the RAID array and breaks the volume groups.

Raid card is a LSI SAS1068E
