I decided to try Flidas on my laptop which is an HP Pavilion 15p-N066us.
It originally came with something like Winsnows 8 and I had it set up to dual

I guess it has a hidden partition called EFI and wants to boot from there and
grub was installed elsewhere so
I just did something similar on a laptop with the alpha version of Trisquel 8

If you mean the most basic I guess it's just 124 GB for Debian mounted on /,
and 124 GB for Trisquel with 2 for swap. If you do it this way, just encrypt
them both. That should be real easy if your not confident you understand
more. That will be blanket encryption but I imagine that's ok.
Something simple?

Partition 2 Swap Ends up being /dev/sda2
Partition 3 Label HomeMount Point /home Encrypted /dev/sda4
