Generally, it is users' responsibility not to set up Japanese
locale under non-Japanese console.  However, ~/.bashrc made by
user-ja 0.28.potato.1 has the following lines

  if [ "$TERM" = "linux" -o "${TERM%-*}" = "xterm" ]
  then
    export LANG=C
    export JLESSCHARSET=latin1
  else
    export LANG=ja_JP.ujis
    export JLESSCHARSET=japanese
  fi

Under ordinary console, $TERM is "linux" and then $LANG is set
to "C".

Do you know the exact place which caused the error?
What is the exact error message?  (Though "reading errors"
must be caused by bad permittion or broken disk, I think
you are not saying about these problem.)

Sorry I don't have that Ohmsha book and I cannot help you
with the disk1 problem.  I hope someone who has the book
or the author of the book reads this mailing list...
