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.
