[Bug 1514120] Re: Ubiquity needs to not disable the LVM and encryption options for dual boot

[Xavier Gnata]

"we are hoping the installer will support this out-of-the-box in the next release."
That would be nice because it is a regression compared to 18.04 which was (IIRC) the last version offering a simple way to encrypt /home in the installer. As the swap should also be encrypted, the simplest way to go is to encrypt /. If we encrypt / I understand that we still need a /boot not encrypted...or do we have a way to encrypt the whole / including /boot?

The user should not have to care about these "details". The need is to
have a simple way to encrypt the user data. "Simple" means "in the
installer".

Title:
  Ubiquity needs to not disable the LVM and encryption options for dual
  boot

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When performing a side by side install with Windows, ubiquity
  needlessly disables the options for LVM and encryption.  Doing a
  manual install and setting up encryption works fine, so there seems to
  be no reason for Ubiquity to deny this option on the easy path.
