back up your changed rt_tables file, then unmount /etc/iproute2 ...
the original files of the directory should show up after this ...
now you can cp them to /writable/system-data/etc/iproute2, copy your
modified rt_tables there as well and you should be fine after a reboot
...
sorry, we dont really have protection against people manually bind-
mounting rw files on top of readonly dirs when we make them writable.
