Since the encrypted partitioning crashes, I am assuming that this is
being treated as a bug not an incomplete feature. The Ubuntu-14.04 lists
"Full Disk Encryption" as a capability that exists and is usable.

I have tried using both the Mini.iso and server to create and encrypt
multiple logical partitions without success. The user interface is
needlessly confusing and opaque. After trying several times, I am not
even certain that it can be done.

Title:
  Whole Disk Encryption Crashes Using Ubuiquity 14.04 Installer

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am trying to perform whole disk encryption on a drive wiclean-
  ubiquity-ubuntuth multiple partitions using Ubiquity installer on
  Ubuntu-14.04. Right now I am experimenting with enctypting a
  VirtualBox VM to try it out.

  I followed the instructions provided by
  http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2014/01/16...linux-mint-16/, and was able to
  create the crypto partitions as described. However, when I finished
  and pushed the "Install Now" button, I get an error dialog box coverd
  with multiple "?" and clicking on it causing the installer to go back
  to the disk setup screen. Other attempts resulted in an error box that
  stating that the Installer crashed.

  The syslog and partman logs are attached in a combined file
