I wouldn't have thought this needs to be an option.  If the
existing installation point (which comes up as the default
setting) is at a drive root, and the user doesn't change it,
(s)he shouldn't be given the warning.  But if (s)he explicitly
changes it to a drive root, (s)he will.  That way you should
only be bothered with the warning once.
