I am trying to add a task to minix (v1.3). I've made the appropriate changes to ../h/const.h, table.c and ../h/com.h. After this I re-compiled the kernel, mm and fs. The system is up and running fine and the task seems to be working , however, I have noticed some anomalies. For one, a process 15 shows up from time to time when I hit F1 and F2. This process uses no memory, stack space etc. This process never shows up on the system without the new task added. This makes me think that something is not quite right. Has anyone had similar experiences or has anyone written up any kind of HOWTO for adding tasks?
