# In the Install dialog box click on "''Available Software Sites''" (the link below the Add button)
## In the new dialog box called ''Preferences'', type in the edit box the word 'sub' (as you type we will see the selected items from the below list).
## In the list box you must have now the location: <nowiki>''http://download.eclipse.org/technology/subversive/0.7/update-site/''</nowiki>

### '''At this point you must see the URL previously selected''', namely <nowiki> ''http://download.eclipse.org/technology/subversive/0.7/update-site/''</nowiki>
### Select the URL item.
