Depends on what distro' you use.
Slackware would have it in /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1
# Attach the loopback device.
/sbin/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
/sbin/route add -net 127.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 lo
Redhat should do it from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-routes
However redhat does not normaly need any editing of those files, you could
possably have changed /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo it should
look simalar to;
DEVICE=lo
IPADDR=127.0.0.1
NETMASK=255.0.0.0
NETWORK=127.0.0.0
BROADCAST=127.255.255.255
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
After that file has been read the file ifup-routes should add a route for
loopback at bootime.
