The realemu program did run (this is why graphics mode succeeded
in running) but the /dev/realmode file is not in your namespace.
The default /rc/bin/termrc does this:

		@{
			rfork n
			if(~ $monitor vesa)
				aux/realemu
			aux/vga -l $vgasize
		}

which forks a new namespace before running realemu. Your
/cfg/saturn/termrc is running another copy of realemu without
forking the namespace, so you still see /dev/realmode everywhere
in your environment after rio is started.
