Protocol number is 89.  That's almost 90  :)

Seriously though...

Best way to do this is this way:

1) Turn on OSPF - note that it is working (show ip ospf etc)
2) Bump static routes admin distance >110.  I prefer to go something
like 225 because it is also greater than iBGP and leaves less room for
a balls-up
3) Do a show ip route on EVERY device.  Ensure that all your routes
are O and you have no S.  If you miss a network statement in step 1 it
will be apparent here before you break anything.
4) Once you are sure all your routes are learned via OSPF and not
static, remove static routes.
5) Martini.  Shaken, not stirred.

Cheers,
Matt
