Why? You only need to protect the data not the whole OS. It causes too many
problems. I don't recommend creating a headache for yourself when you only
need to protect some data.
I recommend creating an encrypted partition and mounting an encrypted file
system on that partition.
In addition there are plenty of 3rd party software packages out there that
have encrypted filter drivers or will allow you to create an encrypted
virtual disk. You use that disk just as any secondary disk. The encryption
becomes transparent to you.
Make sure to backup the keys somewhere or you will permanently loose
everything if something happens to the key.
