When I select the "Encrypt system" option during the Partitions portion of the setup, the LL8.0 Calamares installation wizard keeps ending with a "bootloader installation error code 1" error. After a long process to get beyond that, I was able to boot LL 8.0, but only to a BusyBox v1.37.0 (initramfs) prompt, and I just didn't feel like going through the process to overcome that hurdle.
It appears checking the "Encrypt system" option during the Partitions portion of the setup isn't working as smoothly for LL8.0 as it has in past versions.
