Ubuntu and its official variants offer disk encryption with TPM support that can unlock the drive automatically at startup. This feature is available during installation. For post-installation setup, the recommended tool is a user-friendly GUI solution. To enforce password protection after installation, ensure the system meets the necessary requirements for TPM integration and encryption configuration. On your 4th generation Lenovo X1 Yoga running Kubuntu, using Btrfs or ZFS with TPM support should work well.

This statement holds generally for most distributions. A wiki page should reflect this, even though package names might differ between systems like Ubuntu.

You're asking if there's a way to do this in the graphical installer? I don't think so.
