Is there a good reason for that?
I would be thinking to make a small boot partition (100M or less)
and use the initrd to establish the drivers and get the RAID running.
Then put a copy of the boot partition onto every drive so that the
partition tables are the same and so you will always be able to
boot (and put grub on every drive too).
Then you can have your entire system running on RAID and use all
4 drives in a symmetric manner.
