I'm not aware of any way to get the installer to do that.

There is an underlying problem here, though, whereby the installer
discovers and uses sdb when in fact it should be referencing sda. Either
the installer or its installed system is wrong, and it's probably the
installer, but it may simply be something to do with the order that udev
indeterminately discovers its devices on a 2950.
