The checkbox you selected works, obviously, but the simple solution is to use the "encrypt my data" checkbox on the initial "installation destination" screen. That box is the first and most visible place to select encryption, so I would think it's the most obvious way to encrypt an installation possible.
It's been a while since I did my install, but I seem to recall thinking that was too vague to understand what it was going to do.
Was it going to just encrypt *my* data (e.g. only "/home")?
Was it going to encrypt all the data on *my* computer (e.g. encrypt as much of the entire filesystem as possible)? There is *my* data in /var (mail spools, logs, etc), there would be in /etc as well.
