Sorry for the "not-so-thoughtful-suggestion." I just got out of bed and
didn't read properly. I spoke to Nick off list. I suggested he create
a file in /etc/init.d/ -
#! /bin/sh
route add -host 255.255.255.255 dev eth1
chmod 755 and run update-rc.d
If someone has something better to add please do so.
