I had this problem with a Mac formatted iPod a while back. Running fsck
on it (make sure you have hfsplusutils first) fixed it. The problem is
that Mac filesystems are *really* sensitive; if you don't explicitly
eject the ipod before you unplug, it ends up in an "inconsistent" (and
read-only) state until you do a disk check on it.
