In the elisp manual you can find how the recommended way is to derive a mode 
from anexisting one using define-derived-mode.  If there is no closelyrelated 
mode, you should inherit from either text-mode,special-mode, or prog-mode.  
Ifnone of these are suitable, you can inherit from fundamental-mode.

Although I have not done this myself, and so unaware of the details.
