"Please enter passphrase for disk rootfs" message

Hello all,
I downloaded the Kicksecure ISO file, and flashed it to a USB drive using Balena Etcher. I then installed the file to a second USB drive using the Calamares installer.
I boot up the second USB drive and get a message that says, “Please enter passphrase for disk rootfs”. How do I fix that problem? Thank you.

The installer currently requires that you set a disk encryption passphrase when you’re on the “Partitions” screen. Whatever passphrase you set at that point, type that in and press “Enter”. If you don’t remember entering a passphrase, but do remember entering a password at some point, type in that password.

Thanks very much, Arraybolt. Much appreciated! I will give it a try.
