Encryption Volume of Fedora


hi,

I am using Fedora. I am looking for a application that encrypts the hard drive.

In case of Truecrypt on Windows, we specify the same drive on which the OS is loaded. The application reboots the machine, encrypts the drive and boots OS.

But when using Veracrypt on Linux, we have to create a new partition. Move to new partition, then encrypt the partition on which OS is installed.

Is there any application that does like Truecrypt for Linux. I donot want to create a new partition. Please help in this regard.

Thanks in advance.
-uv.
