I don't know what is "!", perhaps "unreachable". This seems (for the moment)
quite normal : you're moving, so the metric changes (it will increase at some
point), and at some point, you will be out of feasible routes. Babel then must
consider that the node has failed, and set the route as unreachable to avoid
some routing loops. It is well explained in the 2.8 paragraph of the RFC :
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc6126.txt

It should. How many time before reboot ?
> Is there any way to fix this?
What version (or commit) are you using ? Which OS ?
> Also, is it possible to redistribute routes added with proto kernel or boot?
Yes. Proto boot is avoided by default, so you must add a configuration line, as
:
redistribute proto 3 allow
