I've been trying to make sense of how to make this work. I wanted to encrypt my windows 7 partition but I've never tried truecrypt for system partitions before. Does truecrypt throw errors when it sees grub2? If I hit escape truecrypt will search the next partition for a loader, but I already have it set at the beginning of the drive. Would I have to reinstall everything with the alternate cd? This is the only way I've been able to find
