veracrypt is a thing, encrypting drives does not need TPM.

Just boot using the good old Master Boot Record for a clean solution (The Veracrypt documentation gives a good overview). Veracrypt works with EFI too, but the EFI partition itself cannot be encrypted. You can even create a hidden OS, if you are forced to give out your password, theres still plausible deniability.

Thanks for the Veracrypt reminder. Adding that to my stuff to setup and document list.

Sometimes Bitlocker really pisses me off.
