Wrong image version on Beaglebone's latest-images

[maciej.k...@gmail.com]

Hi. I wanted to install Debian for 1st time on BeagleBone Black Wireless and selected Stretch IoT Debian 9.9 2019-08-03 4GB SD IoT from https://beagleboard.org/latest-images . Unfortunately, after 1st use of "sudo apt-get update" I noticed that repositories for Jessy are checked. After that I checked "cat /etc/os-release" and it confirmed that it is Jessy installed. So I would like to inform website administrators that something is wrong :) Could someone follow this information to right people and ask them to put answer under this post?

This happens when you have a really really old version of Debian
installed on the eMMC, either hold down the boot button before you
provide power, or remove the MLO/u-boot.img files in the fat partition
of your eMMC.

Thank you for reply Robert.  Finally I managed myself. I am not sure what solved the problem but I tried boot button method and also I formatted the SD card to FAT file system before I etched it with image by use of dd. After applying both of these cures, when the SD card is inserted the Debian 9 boots, otherwise Debian 8.
