Since networking is off, you have to get it turned on (or reinstall and turn it on this time). See this FAQ entry: http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/CentOS6#head-b67e85d98f0e9f1b599358105c551632c6ff7c90 and this screen on how to do it on an install: http://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=CentOS_6&p=install In the 8th step ... you need to press the "Configure Network" button and you need to then check the "Connect Automatically" box (per the above FAQ link).
