[Misc] XEROX 5890i hard drive replacement

[vmx12]

The copier had a blank screen on boot up. Installed a new hard drive and same thing. When powering up it goes thru the usual boot up but the screen remains white (blank). Stumped.

altboot <DIR>?
alboot files inside the DIR?*not reg firmware SPECIAL*

if any of them aren't right you cannot upload via alt boot

**you did have machine off.. Thumb inserted THE Power on right?

There is a small led display on the rear side of machine.
What code you have on the display?
