Using ip from iproute2 (me) is the modern way and already used to add the IPv6 information to the devices. Unfortunately the init scripts and mainly the configuration options do not support to add IPv4 IPs to an interface this way. The aliased devices can simply be added by creating /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX:Y configuration files. You could just copy an existing ifcfg-eth0 to ifcfg-eth0:0 and then changing the relevant data in there. A "service network restart" will bring you up the new eth0:0 device. (Attention: be careful if the machine is remote and you edit these things and restart [stop/start] the network.)
