1.8 Update ERROR (Solved)

  • My Kemper says: " booting & burning from USB device
    ERROR unable to locate firmware file on USB device"


    I´m (or was) on 1.6. beta
    Made a back up before updating.
    I use an Imation 4GB USB Stick. I formated it yesterday.


    the upload progress was nearly finished then the ERROR message apeared on the screen.


    I´m a bit frightend what to do next. Switch the kemper of? Remove the USB stick while still powered on?
    ;(

  • What I´ve learned:


    I switched the Kemper off.
    Removed the Stick.
    Turned it on again.
    Kemper: " Booting and burning from USB.., Retry to find..
    I removed the Kaos.bin from the OS Update Folder
    Copied it back again, And put a copy of the kaos bin on the stick, but in no particular folder.
    Kemper off then on again. Voila
    Found new Firmware. Started the UPdate process...
    And now it says: Update Successful!


    I suspect the stick to be the guilty one. Are there Sticks out there, that will not work properly with the Kemper???


  • There are no bad sticks per se.
    Only individuals ones that do strange things from time to time. ;)


  • Awesome! I had 1.8 installed since its release> I turned on the kemper rack today and got the USB error mentioned about. Your advice worked perfectly! Thanks!
