you can do this by adding a child adapter or simply IP Aliasing. First list your ethernet adapters with ifconfig command.
now su over to root or if you are already root just type this in console

ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.0.22 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

what the command will do is make a virtual or child adapter naming it etho:0 with an ip address of 192.168.0.22 netmask of 255.255.255.0 and will bring the state of the card to up.

for more help you can type man ifconfig for help with the command.
