The encrypted LVM option is only available when I'm replacing an
existing OS. If I wish to install Ubuntu alongside another OS, the
options become grayed out (see screenshot). If I select "Something
else," the manual partition tool does not have options to install Ubuntu
in an encrypted LVM.

Title:
Desktop installer should have an encrypted LVM option
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Wishlist
The normal "desktop" installer should have an option like the
alternate CD's "Guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM".
You only have to read /. or listen to the news to hear about a
gazillion lost laptops with confidential data on them. I'd guess that
many/most users will never bother with the alternate installer, since
the normal (and recommended) desktop CD gives you a two-fer (LiveCD
and install) when downloaded and burned. Thus they will not be aware
of this great option.
And when you go to fix this, see also:
