I was installing ubuntu 18.04 lts server (ubuntu-18.04-live-server-amd64.iso
). I need full disk encryption. But it is missing here. How can I get the LVM and full disk encryption.
According to the 18.04 server release notes on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes#Ubuntu_Server
you will need to use the alternate installer to configure LVM (also RAID, multipath, vlans, bonds, or the ability to re-using existing partitions) on installation. You can download it from:

1For example, at cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/18.04/release,
ubuntu-18.04.1-server-amd64.iso
is an example of one of the alternate installers? The only difference in the list of installers seems to be architecture, none of the installers specifically state "alternate". – kas Nov 12 '18 at 21:59 -
1yes, those are the alternate installers. However, seems like the standard installer has been greatly improved. From above link: "As of 18.04.1, the Subiquity server installer now supports LVM, RAID, vlans, and bonds." – Sebastian Stark Nov 12 '18 at 22:07
