[Bug 1756840] Re: Buggy, under-maintained, not fit for main anymore; alternatives exist

[Paddy Landau]

Would people please note that full-disk encryption is already possible,
where everything on a new installation is encrypted even including
/boot, but without wiping any existing OS such as Windows. (This is why
the existing full-disk encryption is not useful for the majority of
users.)

This would make a far better option than asking users to manually
install fscrypt.

There is a bug with Grub that prevents wide scale adoption of this, for
which I have raised a bug:

Reference for full-disk encryption without wiping any other OS:

Thank you
