I have tried to use partman-auto-crypto by selecting
"Automatically set up encrypted LVM" in the partman menu.

I initially thought that it was going to use the free space which was
available on the hard-drive.

David:
Where has the "Erase entire disk and ..." part of this menu entry (and the one for auto-lvm disappeared to? IIRC that was in the original discussion.

It is currently only used on the first menu for the regular partitioning method. I understand the confusion this may cause...so perhaps the best solution would be to expand the partman-auto/select_disk and partman-auto/select_disks templates.

They currently say:

"Select disk to partition:"
<list-of-available-disks>

How about changing them to:
"Select disk to partition (please note that the entire disk will be erased):"
