I cleaned up your code a little bit as well as fix it.

print("Loading...")
print("choose Option...")
print("Empty")
print("Power")
 
local x = Empty
local y = Power

input = read()
if input == "x" then
rs.setBundledOutput( "right", colors.lime)

elseif input == "y" then
rs.setBundledOutput( "right", colors.white)
sleep(1)

elseif input ~= "x" or "y" then
print("incorrect answer")
sleep(2)
os.shutdown()
end

The problems were that you didn't have the options in one 'if' statement. Also on os.shutdown() you forgot the (). The 2nd line also was a write command so 'Empty' was being put on the same line as choose option. Added local to your variables.

You are welcome to ask any more questions about this code.

You got it wrong, but the right idea.
You are checking if the input is equal to the string "x". Not the variable x.
And also you can't do

elseif input ~= x or y then

The easiest way is just to put in

else

But if you want to do it like that then you'll have to do

elseif input ~= x or input ~= y then

Yeah thats a mental failure on my part. Sorry haven't had much sleep and its not good to code when half asleep. xD Thanks for correcting my mistakes ^^
