As far as I know the file you want to edit is
/etc/sysconfig/static-routes and the format of the file is just the
command you'd be using with route, but without the "route add" bit at
the start. eg
$ route add default gw firewall
becomes
default gw firewall
in /etc/sysconfig/static-routes. The shell script which does the dirty
work is /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-routes.
I think that's right :)

hmmm.. good question. You shouldn't need to add static routes for
gateways though. If it's just a gateway you want to add then add a line
that says
GATEWAY=gateway
in your /etc/sysconfig/network file.
I don't know enough about linuxconf to tell you why it's not working.
