Peter, the only way (as far as I know) to get a default route into an
IGRP speaking router is to use the 'ip default-network' command.
You can either put it on R1 and have it advertised, or put it on R6
directly.
It does not matter if it is the same default route that you are
propagating through your OSPF domain.
I am assuming your IGRP domain is a stub network, so all you have to do
is get it to default to anything that has a valid next hop of R1, R1 is
wise and will know the correct way to route the packet.
The 'ip default-network' must reference a classful network, and R6 must
have an entry for that classful network (not just a subnet of it) in
it's routing table.
If you don't have a candidate routing entry that meets that criteria,
here is an easy way to spoof it:
Creat a loopback on R1, (careful about affecting your OSPF RID) say
172.16.1.1 255.255.0.0, and add this network to IGRP. Then on either R1
or R6, add 'ip default-network 172.16.0.0'
That should do the trick, R6 will send unknown packets to R1, which will
then forward them to the "correct' default route.

Hope that helps,

Chad
