I suppose you mean these entries, right?

tools/iso-scan/debian/po/el.po:
# XXX This is commented out because it is identical to the text in
# load-iso, and that breaks main-menu.
##: ../templates:4
#msgid "Scan hard drives for an installer ISO image"
#msgstr "Αναζήτηση ενός ειδώλου εγκατάστασης ISO στους σκληρούς 
δίσκους"

retriever/cdrom/debian/po/el.po:
# XXX This is commented out because it is identical to the text in
# load-iso, and that breaks main-menu.
#msgid "Load installer components from CD"
