What have you done so far with the installation process? And have you read the manual?

If you mean that it doesn't automatically boot into disk mode and kind of freezes with the picture of a usb plug on (but backlight fades), that's a known problem that some builds have for an unknown reason sadly.
Most reports I've read are about Minis (and you can find a few in the forums already) - but I believe, it can happen on other Ipods, too.

you can also use emergency disk mode instead -- i.e. rebooting the Ipod and then entering disk mode by holding Play + Select. This is what I usually do ...
