You will need a tool like Disk Warrior from Alsoft or Tech Tool Pro from Micromat to fix these types of errors.Alternately, you can backup your hard drive's data to an external drive, reformat the internal drive, and restore from the backup.

I followed standard could not be procedure, by booting up from the OS X 10.4 install disk, selecting UTILITIES, then DISK UTILITIES. Once the DISK UTILITY opened, I selected the OS X 10.4.11 disk. Then I clicked on the REPAIR DISK button, and let it go through the scan / repair cycle. But it stopped near the end, giving me this message: ______________________________________ [in red letters] invalid node structure The volume Mac OS X could not be repaired after 3 attempts Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit [in black letters] 1 HFS volume checked [in red letters] 1 volume could not be repaired because of an error [in black letters] Repair attempted on 1 volume [in red letters] 1 volume could not be repaired ______________________________________ After I got that message, I shut down, then restarted manually after waiting about ten seconds, rebooting from the OS X 10.4.11 install disk as before. But when I got to the DISK UTILITY page again, this time I did the other of the three things [verifying permissions, etc.], before re-running the disk repair again. And again I got the same me
on the Mac platform, but if Disk Utility is either unavailable or not able to repair a drive, then Single User Mode and the command line tool fsck should be your next choice. The fsck tool is bundled with every Mac, but because it's accessible exclusively through the command line it may appear complex and sound more intimidating than it really is. Fear not though, because using fsck is actually quite simple, and there are several cases where it can repair a problem with a drive that Disk Utility was unable to. How to use Single User Mode and fsck to repair a disk Boot the Mac into Single User Mode by holding down Command+S during system boot after you hear the boot chime, you know you will have successfully entered Single User Mode because you will see a bunch of white text on a black background scroll by When the Single User boot sequence has finished, you'll find a small command prompt at the bottom of the screen prefixed by a hash sign (#), when you see that type the following command exactly: fsck -fy Once fsck completes, if you see a "File system was modified" message, then you should run "fsck -fy" again until you see a message stating "The volume (name) appears to be OK" - this is standard procedure of using fsck Type "reboot" to leave Single User Mode and boot the Mac back into OS X as usual Once OS X is booted again, it can be a good idea to confirm all is well by going back to Disk Utility and running the "Verify" tool to check on the drives health. Keep in mind that if the ‘fsck' tool continuously fails or reports errors and Disk Utility is a no go as well, the hard drive itself very well may be failing and on its last legs, so be sure to initiate a back up all of your critical data using Time Machine or your backup method of choice, and aim to get the drive replaced sooner than later.
