Anybody know a guide or reading material on learning how to encrypt hard drives ?

Mint only allows you to encrypt your home partition.

Lol WTF? Cryptsetup has been a thing for what? Twenty years?

encrypting /home is good if you have multiple users also eCryptfs is also thing for several years just like LUKS/dm-crypt

/home encryption can be useful, but the fact that the installer does not offer FDE is laughable.

Also don’t use ecryptfs, it sucks.
