I went through this on a 400 slot loader. I had to take the hard
drive out & put it in another Mac, reformatted it, installed OS9,
downloaded the firmware. Then I took the hard drive out & put it back
in the problem Mac, booted with an external monitor, installed the
firmware (must be in OS9) and the screen came back.

So a friend was upgrading his graphite to OS X and neglected to
update the firmware. Needless to say, the screen is dead, so I
connected an external monitor. It booted once, but the hard drive
only had 9.0 on it. I installed the 9.1 update and restarted. Now
I can't get it to boot off either the internal drive or the CD/DVD-
ROM. All I get is a startup chime and the white screen on the
external display.
