Here I have two disk drive .
SSD as / (root partition)
HDD as /home (home partition)
Installing Cryptsetup:-
$ sudo apt-get install cryptsetup
$ sudo apt-get install lvm2
Copy /home to another location
sudo -i
sudo mkdir /data β> make directory for copy data
sudo cp -avi sumantk /data β> Copy the home
sudo vi /etc/passwd β> change the home path for unmount /home
Unmount the drive
umount /dev/sda1
Format & change to lvm type
sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1
Format & change to lvm type
pvcreate /dev/sda4
vgcreate vg_home /dev/sda4
lvcreate -n lv_home -l 100%FREE vg_home

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/mapper/vg_home-lv_home mycrypt
mkfs -t ext4 /dev/mapper/mycrypt
