OK. Then I'll edit urls.ent in this way.

Yes. This file is translated by Akira YOSHIYAMA
<yosshy@tkf.att.ne.jp> for the boot-floppies-ja package of Debian JP
project.

But the Debian installation system of the present boot-floppies
package can't deal with Japanese, and the messages of the installation
system is actually English. If the language of the messages is
different between on the actual installation system and on the manual,
won't users confuse?
