[Bug 1799550] Re: No way to encrypt at partition level (dual boot)

[Xavier Gnata]

I don't know if the new installer will be ready for 21.10.
If that is the case then I do hope it allows encrypted installation with dual boot.
This lack of feature is a blocker.

Title:
  No way to encrypt at partition level (dual boot)

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I'm using kubuntu alongside with windows in a dual boot, therefore I cannot use the full disk partition option. There is no option in the installer to get an encrypted kubuntu with windows (or any other OS) already installed on the same disk. There used to be an option to encrypt /home (up to 16.10 IIRC) but it does not exist anymore.
  I had to follow and adapt this tutorial http://blog.botux.fr/en/2015/09/ubuntu-installation-manual-full-disk-encryption-lvm-on-luks/ to get my encrypted kubuntu.
  Is it a bug in the installer or a missing (important, as security related) feature?
