I have a problem with rc1

did a 'cp ifcfg-eth0 ifcfg-eth0:0' - replaced interface name with 'eth0:0' 
and put in new IP address as I am used to.

Now './ifup ifcfg-eth0:0' and './ifup eth0:0' gives me the following errors:

Device "eth0:0" does not exist.
Cannot find device "eth0:0"
Error adding address 130.227.117.18 for eth0:0.
WARNING: interface is ignored: No such device
RTNETLINK answers: File exists

I can configure eth0:0 manually using ifconfig. If I try ifup again, I get 
above error messages once again.

I copies ifup from Mandrake 8.0, and things works as expected, so this 
script must have introduced some errors. A quick glance gave me no idea 
what it was, and I am too busy to find the bug :(
