While I tried many of the options proposed in the lists, I was still
unable to save the routing information.
I finally went ahead and tried to seek the info via google using
different keywords and I actually found the simplest solution.

Edit file:
|/etc/sysconfig/network

And Add line:
||GATEWAY=<your gw ip here>

Restart networking interfaces and you're set. Routing to gateway will
persist over reboots and I can still use DHCP on the other interface.
(IP is locked in the DHCP server, so it will remain the same...)
