''Note'': you does not have to use Wine to install Morrowind data files on Linux. See [[Getting Data Files for Linux Install|this article]] for details.

* Extract it
* Change in openmw.cfg the path to your original "Data File" of Morrowind.
* Launch "openmw.exe" if your are under Windows, or "openmw" if you are under Linux/MAC
* Play!
 
===The (bleeding edge) Source Way===
