<![CDATA[How to encrypt the system?]]>Hello. Im planning to install UT on a pixel 3a xl, and wondered if there was a way to encrypt the system. In android for example, after booting the system from a shutdown. you are prompted for the password of the encryption.

Thanks! I found a script on: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1012/one-method-to-encrypt-home-phablet/33, which I will continue to pursue.
But I haven't found any newer instructions yet.
Since this is a solution almost 3 years old, I thought that there might be newer options, which may have been implemented in the operating system or created as an app.
If anyone is using LUKS encryption, it would be helpful if someone would like to share it here.

Unfortunately I couldn't find any instructions for LUKS encryption in Ubuntu Touch.

No result when searching in titles, but...

Is there any news in the meantime? Unfortunately I couldn't find any instructions for LUKS encryption in Ubuntu Touch.
Which instructions for /home and the SD-card can I use?

If you search the forum a little bit you'll find out it's possible with LUKS encryption, and it's pretty straightforward. But since it's nothing official, any update to the system image will erase that.
