Are you doing a fresh install or planning to encrypt an existing OS?

I'm sure others do too, but I know for sure Ubuntu and Centos have
options for full disk encryption on install. I believe Ubuntu requires
the alternate-install disk. I've only done http installs for Centos,
so I can't say for sure the encryption option is there with a disk
install.
