I need to configure my LFS box to multihome the external Ethernet connection 
(which is eth1 on my machine). I can do this manually by issuing:

ifconfig eth1:1 <second ip address>

But I'd appreciate some advice/suggestions on how to do this via the boot 
scripts. The obvious thing I tried -- creating a directory called 
/etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth1:1 and populating an ipv4 file in 
it appropriately -- didn't work. Or rather, it added the second IP address to 
the eth1 interface, but it didn't show up in the ifconfig report and weird 
things started happening to my LAN connectivity.
