kenji, why do you need /dev/realmode file? the file is only used
when setting up graphics with the vesa driver which is done in
termrc. the reason you do not see the file is because termrc
*intentionally* forks the namespace and runs aux/realemu
and aux/vga in that namespace. so we wont clutter /dev
with slow userspace fileservers. it also doesnt start
realemu when you'r not using vesa. this is all intentional.

why do you need /dev/realmode file? why do you not just
set monitor=vesa and vgasize= variable to set graphics mode?
do you wish to set up graphics later in your own scripts?
in that case, you can just run aux/realemu yourself there
before running aux/vga. what are you trying todo?
