Bug Description
I'm using kubuntu alongside with windows in a dual boot, therefore I cannot use the full disk partition option. There is no option in the installer to get an encrypted kubuntu with windows (or any other OS) already installed on the same disk. There used to be an option to encrypt /home (up to 16.10 IIRC) but it does not exist anymore.
I had to follow and adapt this tutorial http://
Is it a bug in the installer or a missing (important, as security related) feature?

To post a comment you must log in.
It's a feature that was there before (encrypting /home) but is no longer supported.
As for full disk encryption, you still have the option of doing the partitioning yourself; we indeed to not currently provide an option to do resizing *and* disk encryption.
Marking as Wishlist / Triaged, since these feature requests are fairly well understood.
