This line indicates that it failed to bring up the network interfaces
marked auto using ifup.

The ifupdown-wait-online service failed because ifupdown never
succesfully brought a network interface up itself. This is the default
behaviour of the ifupdown-wait-online script. You can also have it wait
until a default route is present by adding the following line to
/etc/default/networking:
WAIT_ONLINE_METHOD=route
But you should try to find out why ifupdown failed bringing up the
network in the first place. You could do that by removing the auto eth*
lines from /etc/network/interfaces, reboot, and then run ifup -v eth0;
ifup -v eth0:1 by hand, and check for any error messages.
