I spent the morning trying to fix my iPod, and didn't find anything this concise on the net. Sure there are Disk Warrior fixes, but this is much faster and requires less disk space if you don't have any important data stored on your iPod.
If your iPod is stuck on the Apple logo screen, first try to restart it by holding Menu and center select. If that does not work, then force your iPod into disk mode (restart as mentioned above, then switch to center select and Play). If you are unable to verify and repair the disk using Disk Utility, and you get a Node B tree error, simply erase the unmountable partition in Disk Utility.
This is done by clicking the transparent icon of the partion, switching to the Erase tab, and clicking Erase. Make sure your volume format is set to Mac OS Extended (Journaled), and you're good to go. After you've formated the partion, you should be able to mount the iPod in iTunes and reload all your songs.
