Bug Description

I've did some test on Japanese installation with Feisty Desktop and Alternate CD build on 20070412.
I found there are characters missing in Japanese boot help screens.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot PC with Ubuntu 7.04 Desktop or Alternate CD
2. English boot screen comes up
3. Press F2
4. Select 日本語 (which means Japanese)
5. Press F1
6. Japanese help screen pops up, but many characters are missing

Expected results:
All characters are shown in Japanese installer boot help screens

Version-Release numbers:
Ubuntu 7.04 Desktop CD (build on 20070412)
Ubuntu 7.04 Alternate CD (build on 20070412)
