Cool. I'd like to start from scratch again anyway, now that I have a much better understanding of the actual set-up and securing of both distros. I think I'm going to start the process here shortly, now that I've got a decent grasp on how it works. it seems that starting from scratch, I just install on distro (jessie) with LUKS and LVM, but don't partition the entire drive, then install the second distro, Kali, with LUKS with lvm on what free space I leave. This wont create a problem when booting, hopefully, and if so I have two live ISO's i can use to trouble shot.
