Have you tried another flash drive?
Which USB ports do you insert the drive? It needs to be inserted in the most right hand port. (The one near the bd drive)
One another thing to check, make sure the USB drive is initiated as MBR. Ones I had this problem when I used the drive for installing windows 10 before. The app which prepares the bootable drive reinitiated the drive as GPT so PS3 couldn't reed it anymore.
