We just completed BW on HANA migration at customer site and to work with eclipse based BW Modeling tools I tried to install HANA studio followed by deployment of ABAP Development Tools and BW modeling tools on the top of HANA studio.  I encountered an error installing these tools and found a fix.  Putting together all the steps which can be referred quickly to install and start HANA  modeling.
