[ovirt-users] Error while installing oVirt Self Hosted Engine

This is roughly my 10th attempt at installing some version of oVirt and I think where I get stuck every time is with the networking aspect. I'm simply trying to test out oVirt on an old laptop wiht 16GB RAM and an external HDD. I'm connected via WiFi. After failing 100 times with the regular ovirt engine, It was recommended I try the self-hosted engine. ** Anyway, here are the contents of my /etc/hosts file: 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 10.114.13.144 host.example.rocks host 10.114.13.145 engine.example.rocks engine ** After running hosted-engine --deploy, I get to the prompt below in which the installer fails afterwards: You may specify a unicast MAC address for the VM or accept a randomly generated default [00:16:3e:5b:3a:73]: [ ERROR ] Failed to execute stage 'Environment customization': Cannot acquire nic/bridge address [ INFO ] Stage: Clean up [ INFO ] Generating answer file '/var/lib/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/answers/answers-20170614163222.conf' [ INFO ] Stage: Pre-termination [ INFO ] Stage: Termination [ ERROR ] Hosted Engine deployment failed Log file is located at /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-20170614160653-2vuu7h.log ** Here is a tail of the log: [root@engine /]# tail /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-20170614160653-2vuu7h.log 2017-06-14 16:32:22 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:134 condition False 2017-06-14 16:32:22 INFO otopi.context context.runSequence:687 Stage: Termination 2017-06-14 16:32:22 DEBUG otopi.context context.runSequence:691 STAGE terminate 2017-06-14 16:32:22 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:128 Stage terminate METHOD otopi.plugins.gr_he_common.core.misc.Plugin._terminate 2017-06-14 16:32:22 ERROR otopi.plugins.gr_he_common.core.misc misc._terminate:178 Hosted Engine deployment failed 2017-06-14 16:32:22 DEBUG otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.human dialog.__logString:204 DIALOG:SEND Log file is located at /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup/ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-20170614160653-2vuu7h.log 2017-06-14 16:32:22 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:128 Stage terminate METHOD otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.human.Plugin._terminate 2017-06-14 16:32:22 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:128 Stage terminate METHOD otopi.plugins.otopi.dialog.machine.Plugin._terminate 2017-06-14 16:32:22 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:134 condition False 2017-06-14 16:32:22 DEBUG otopi.context context._executeMethod:128 Stage terminate METHOD otopi.plugins.otopi.core.log.Plugin._terminate ** This is my first time writing to this list, so hopefully I'm doing it right. Thanks in advance - this is driving me crazy!
