Its me again asking for help on Linux... How do you add an IP address using terminal?

why, devices usually have their IP's set in software (usually via a web configurator) then the IP is automatically on the network when you conect the device
 
Coz im using the CentOS server edition and I need to assign a static IP to it. Server edition doesnt have a GUI.

well, i'm not familliar with CentOS, although i'll check the net[ot]i thought you wanted to create an IP rather than assign an IP[/ot]
 
Your question was not descriptive enough, but if you want to manually change the IP address of a network interface then you can do
Code: 
ifconfig eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx up
