Ah! Just to ask: since you have access to a Windows box, did you run iTunes and enable disk use? That may help you out.
Can you make sure you have your ipod plugged directly into your PC - and not into any sort of USB hub.
If you have a second iPod cable, I'd try that too - faulty cables / USB ports have been known to give this error.
Maybe it's the result of slow rates of the usb 1.1 ports? My Windows tryout was on a usb 2.0 port though...
It doesn't matter about the transfer speed - that is transparent to ipodpatcher.
it sounds like both your PCs are having a hard time talking to the disk over the USB link

Better do what Mr. Jobs says... SmileyRestore it in iTunes, then try again... but this time, bring a new cable.
