Hello,

I have the following request: I wanted to encrypt Windows 11, system partition, with VeraCrypt. Currently, Windows 11 is unencrypted and Linux Mint 22.2 (LUKS, fully encrypted), both operating systems are installed on different hard drives.

I now have the following problem. How should I proceed to achieve problem-free post-encryption?
Unfortunately, according to my research, there are only tutorials for encrypting single boot of the respective operating system. Unfortunately, I can't find anything for handling the boot loader either.

Can anyone give me some input? It would be very helpful.

Dual boot
Windows 11, system partition, to be encrypted with VeraCrypt.
Linux Mint 22.2, LUKS, fully encrypted
2 hard drives, the operating systems are installed on different hard drives.
Bootloader for dual boot for Windows 11 (VeraCrypt) & Linux Mint 22.2 (LUKS)
