Hello, this'll be brief as I'm sure some it's been brought up somewhere, just
adding my data point. I can provide more details or test stuff if needed.

My box brings up eth0:0 on boot (which is up and working), however an ifconfig
doesn't show any alias devices, and neither does /proc/net/dev. Running
2.1.123 (and every other kernel), they show up.

Last boot something went wrong with the networking, requiring a reboot, I
couldn't get the route commands to actually add back in the routes using the
eth0:0 alias. Immediatly after the reboot things worked fine (still no
aliases in /proc/net/dev though).

This boot I had some oopses that are keeping to recure, all of which are
dealing with various programs trying to make network connections (my local
copy of junkbuster and telnets). Not every connection, but quite a few
(junkbuster forks then does the network connect stuff, some of the children
oops out).
