Mistyped in the line above? Must be: NETWORKING=yes

Also mistyped above? Must be: FORWARD_IPV4=yes

For which reason did you set this static route? You have set default
route to go through eth0 to IP 10.0.1.4. This static route setting is
unnecessary. Better delete the route-eth0 file.
After setting your network files correctly and restarted the network you
can check your routes with "route -n".
