I just did something similar on a laptop with the alpha version of Trisquel 8
but I think it's pretty much the same for 7.
The install program suggests a plan but select the option to 'do something
else' and click 'Continue'
Then it scans the hard drive and comes up with a graphic picture
>give more details
It is a 80gb sata hdd with nothing on it.
In https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/full-disk-encryption-install instructions at
the step where you have to partition disks.
You may select guided use entire disk and set up encrypted lwm. I want the
full system encryption on a 40gb
I could only find:
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/install-trisquel-windows-dual-boot-0
which would be useful if you need to shrink an existing Windows to create
free space for Trisquel.
This is really old but still helpful if the first link worked:
Why do not you simply follow the normal procedure for installation?.
40 GB (1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes) is more than enough. I typically install
my virtual machines with Debian and LXDE in 10 GB virtual disks and there is
plenty of space left.
Are there instructions or vidoes showing how you install trisquel on a 40gb
partition on a 80gb hdd. And with full hdd system encryption.
