You don't. What you do instead is use an encrypted data partition, which may be supported by some Ubuntu tool. The problem is that the kernel and an initrd have to reside outside of the encrypted space. There is no way around that. As a consequence, an attacker can already modify those two and get complete control. If you are worried about this, use some form of physical protection. Weak protection comes from using write-once media like a CD-R. Stronger comes from using an encrypted memory-stick with keypad. (Beware, there are secure and insecure ones on the market.) You can also ware the stick around your neck.
