  <description><![CDATA[encryption is an important security tool for guarding against needless, harmful invasion of privacy. infrastructure like LUKS makes tools possible that can bring these tools to nontechnical users.<br /><br />the standard installer should include an option to encrypt the entire system -- root, swap, home, and all. for the alternate installer, ubuntu should work with debian-installer's developers to improve the stability and flexibility of the encrypted volume management tools.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The standard installer, or at least the alternate one, should include an option to encrypt the entire system, even if is splited on more hard drives. Creating an ecrypted LVM using all hard drives or chosen ones is not posible at the moment.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[And right after that it should<br /><br />a) prompt you to create a rescue disk/key<br /><br />b) prompt you to configure your backup software which should be installed by default (which is another topic)<br /><br />I'm all for encryption... laptops walk way to easily... and the easier we make it the easier we should make to ensure someone isn't screwed because they lost they password/key/something messed up.<br /><br />High security works well in a company with administrators to save you... when you are all alone then be sure to build contingency in right away (not as a next release option)]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[I'd like the option to encrypt only certain partitions.  I have lots of mp3's and don't want to have to recopy them to the HD each time I reinstall the upcoming Ubuntu release.  They could instead be stored on a separate non-encrypted partition.  I could then install a brand new encrypted Ubuntu system without wiping out this unencrypted media partition.]]></description>
