verifying that disk is encrypted

I successfully re-installed Ubuntu with the built-in encryption on, and now I need
to do _something like_ letting my employer verify that I do have it encrypted.
I say  "something like"  because, _for built-in encryption_,
submitting a screenshot would be enough.
However, I have not found any way of

(a)  taking a screenshot of the  "Please unlock disk"  screen
or
(b)  bringing up anything else showing that the built-in encryption is enabled

.


It makes some sense to me that (a) might intentionally be impossible or hard,
but I'm quite surprised that I haven't found a way of doing (b).

Do you know how to do either of those?

(I _have_ considered just taking a _photo_ of the  "Please unlock disk"  screen,
and might end up just doing that, but that alternative would require
specific approval which it would probably take some time to get.)



Thankyou,
Eric Demer
