Bug Description

When multibooting Ubuntu with other OS's, the installer does not offer any encryption such as /home encryption or partition encryption for Ubuntu.

Given that the /home encryption bug appears to remain unfixed, this leaves users with no encryption whatsoever in multiboot situations e.g. when dual-booting Ubuntu with Windows. A stolen computer with no encryption for confidential data is a serious security risk!
