+NAME
+ wic write - write wic image to a device
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ wic write <image> <target>
+ wic write <image> <target> --expand auto
+ wic write <image> <target> --expand 1:100M-2:300M
+ wic write <image> <target> --native-sysroot <path>
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ This command writes wic image to a target device (USB stick, SD card etc)
+
+ $ wic write ./tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/core-image-minimal-qemux86-64.wic /dev/sdb
+
+ The --expand option is used to resize image partitions.
+ --expand auto expands partitions to occupy all free space available on the target device.
+ It's also possible to specify expansion rules in a format
+ <partition>:<size>[-<partition>:<size>...] for one or more partitions.
+ Specifying size 0 will keep partition unmodified.
+ Note: Resizing boot partition can result in non-bootable image for non-EFI images. It is
+ recommended to use size 0 for boot partition to keep image bootable.
+
+ The --native-sysroot option is used to specify the path to the native sysroot
+ containing the tools(parted, resize2fs) to use.
