When I installed the firmware that way, I had to erase the memory stick (fat32 I think) and then put just the kaos.bin file on it. I don't think it will work with a kemper formatted stick with the file in the OS folder the way you would with a regular update.
Check here under "installing and reinstalling the firmware" : http://www.soundside.de/support/KPARecovery.htm

Don,t put the kaos.bin file in the OS folder. Put it simply on the stick (out from folders), and try again.
I hope that my english is understeable.

when you put the stick in,the kemper should automatically find OS updates and ask if you want to install,no need to hold anything down.

When you download the Firmware you always find a pdf called How to update your KPA.pdf. This description recommends to put the kaos.bin into the "OS Update" folder. And this procedure does not need the thing with hold both '<' and '>' keys.
Quote from wiKPA.pdf, page 18INSTALL OR REINSTALL THE FIRMWARE
- Switch the main knob off
- download the latest KPA firmware
- use your usual KPA-formatted USB stick
- copy the unzipped firmware file kaos.bin into the root folder of the USB stick (NOTE: there must be no other copy of the kaos.bin file elsewhere on the stick)
- plug the USB stick into the KPA
- press and hold both '<' and '>' keys
- switch KPA to tuner while still holding both keys
- something like 'booting and installing' will be displayed
- wait until the firmware is reinstalled.
This is a kind of forece install of Firmware. And here the kaos.bin should be put into the root folder.
