Hmmm, in a previous post you said you had multiple aliases and three errors. But above, you have only posted one main device and one alias. Are they ones that succeed of fail?
Every one of them fails except eth0 itself (which is good or I would have locked myself out).
The reason I said to use "head -20" and "ifcfg-eth0*" was that if you used that command literally, it would (a) output ALL eth0 aliases, and (b) prepend each one automatically with a filename header, assuming there is more than one file.
I used the GUI to create the interfaces: the files are not called 'ifcfg-eth0:1' etc but they are named. But I get your point so heres the full listing:

I went over the configs a couple of times and the last attempt to restart one interface using ifup and ifdown did not show that error (and the interfaces come up) - a full networking restart gives those errors and once again the aliasses don't come up. Even though the networking script says [OK] for each interface... I'm confused...
