This image has 8 priority levels. It's more instructive to look at it right after loading, because then you will see the idleProcess at priority 1 in the quiescentProcessList. The idleProcess is always runnable. So if no higher-priority process is runnable (which is most of the time) this is what you see. The other processes are all waiting on some Semaphore so they are not in that list.</div><br><div apple-content-edited="true"> <span style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px; font-family: 'lucida grande'; font-size: 12px;"><div style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">- Bert -</span></div></span></div><br></div></blockquote><br></div></body></html>
