It sounds like you ran out of disk space.  You should try making a
bigger .hfv with makehfv.exe and install realmz 2.5 into that.

Nothing.  Executor's Browser is different from Apple's Finder, and
doesn't support placing icons on the desktop.  You can, however, place
icons in the "hotband" near the top of the screen.

There's an svgalib version you can run straight from console
(`executor-svga').  There's also an X windows version (`executor').
