I realize now, you're obviously mistaken - I'd forgotten that when
I went into rescue mode, it actually asked if I wanted to start
networking, to which I replied yes. Maybe this is a feature
addition...
Anyway, I tried again to remove the Livna Nvdia stuff in rescue
mode, after doublechecking what Tim was saying, and this time,
running "yum remove kmod-nvidia-..." succeeded. Upon reboot, all
is now well. I guess I need to file a bug over on Livna.
