Sounds like you don't have a net connection up. If you had it
configured previously you /might/ be able to get it up by doing:
systemctl start NetworkManager.service

Sorry, those should all be separate lines, I've put a $ to indicate
each one below (also it should have been nvidia-xconfig, not
nvidia-display-config, again fixed this below):

$ mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup-20111202
$ nvidia-xconfig
$ echo blacklist nouveau >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
$ dracut /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)
