Type, as root,  'ip addr'.  Also 'system-config-network' and/or
'NetworkManager' applet will provide that information.

'ifconfig' is a part of  net-tools-1.60-79.fc7, as for now,
package.  Quite possible it was omitted from LiveCD to save
some space.  It does not do anything more than 'ip' which
can also do many other things.

For a quick peek how 'ip' works look how it is used in
/sbin/ifup script and also try to type things like 'ip help',
'ip addr help' and similar.
