I came across the same thing. A closer look at /etc/init.d/network learned
that if one selects 'none' for the Gateway, an entry GATEWAY=none is added
to this file.
The:

        route add default gw ${GATEWAY} metric 1

command results in the message you encountered. 
This seems like a minor bug in the script to me, but is easily overcome by
changing 'none' in your system ip-number. Or am I committing a sin against
the laws of ip here?

Success,
