2.1.xxx adds the route for you. Remove the offending statement from your
init scripts.
from linux/Documentation/Changes:
[...]OSPF classes have been added, and interface routes are generated
automatically.

from linux/Documentation/Changes:
If you're experiencing reports of lots of network errors, chances
are you need to upgrade to a more recent net-tools that understands the
new /proc/net/dev format.
Instead of giving you the url for net-tools, I am going to make the
suggestion that you browse through Changes again a tad more thoroughly, in
particular, the section titled Networking Changes. :)
