+### Wic adds / mountpoint to fstab
+
+In the older version of wic, any mount point named / is skipped from adding
+into the fstab entry.
+
+With the latest wic, this is not the case. / mount point, if any, is added
+to /etc/fstab for automount.
+
+Any wks file which assumed that / would be skipped from /etc/fstab should
+now be corrected. Otherwise, it might result in multiple / entries in /etc/fstab.
+One by the image_configure_fstab function from image class and one by wic.
+
+Below is an example wks entry that might cause an issue.
+Replace "part /" with "part" to avoid adding duplicate entry for /.
+
+```
+part / --source rootfs --ondisk sda --fstype ext4 --label platform --align 1024 --use-uuid
+```
