ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add -net 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0:0
ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.20.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add -net 192.168.20.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0:0
then ping 192.168.10.1 and 192.168.20.1 from machines in corresponding subnets
if you want this to be permanent you need to read the docs for your distro
config files possibly in /etc/sysconfig/networks
