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

[Jon Bornstein]

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]:

Here is a tail of the log:

This is my first time writing to this list, so hopefully I'm doing it
right.  Thanks in advance - this is driving me crazy!
