Artifacts overview

wic-file

The wic file is a flashable image file. When upgrading a system with a wic-file, the contents of the wic-file are mirrored to the mass storage device.

Kickstart/wks-file

The wks-file defines where the contents are placed in the wic-file. In our yocto build-system the file is located in meta-netmodule-bsp/wic/*.wks.
