Has that changed since the release of utopic?  Because when I installed
this laptop it was certainly not possible to do so and still use LUKS
encryption, without jumping over some fairly significant hurdles.

>From memory, the workaround steps to get a larger /boot were:
- create preferred partition setup using a server install ISO
- boot using the desktop ISO
- manually enable the encrypted LVM VG
- run the installer and tell it to use the existing partition setup
- boot from the server CD again, run recovery, and reconfigure the initrd to 
include encryption support

There may have been an easier way to do this, but all the ways I tried
based on the server ISO ended up with non-working graphics, and the
desktop ISO resulted in a unbootable system due to missing encryption
support.
