Just to emphasise what Patrick says, if you boot Linux into singe user
mode, you can get root access without needing a password, which would
bypass any setup you had done this way.

You would be better off using disc encryption, and claiming that you
used a long pass phrase which you had written down rather than
remembered, and that you had destroyed the paper it was written on.
