This document belongs to Manual Full System Encryption (with Extras): Detailed Process.

1. Explanation

You will download and run the script (application) that will:

• Prepare your partitions for the installer
• Run the installer
• Fix problems created by the installer

2. Download the application

• Open the terminal (Ctrl+T, or use the menu).

• Copy-and-paste the following command to download the application. Warning: This looks like two lines because of the documentation formatting, but it's in fact just one line. Copy the entire thing and paste it into your terminal.

  sudo wget --no-verbose --output-document=/usr/local/sbin/encryptinstallation https://www.dropbox.com/s/dmqnzqs1bbp6dm9/encryptinstallation?dl=1

• Copy-and-paste the following command to enable the application to run.

  sudo chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/encryptinstallation

3. Run the application

In a moment, you will start the application. When you do so:

• It will ask you some questions.
• It will prepare your system for the Installer.
• It will start the Installer.

• When it starts the Installer, you will need to open the instructions (I'll remind you).

So…

Still in the terminal, enter this command:

encryptinstallation

Answer the questions, and when the Installer starts, open the instructions.
