IIRC, Disk Utility won't let you run the repair function on the disk that you're booted from. You'll need to boot from the OS install CD-ROM, and then try to run Disk Utility, and the repair button should be available. I've never actually had to run the repair function myself, but I'm pretty sure that's the case. Of course, if I'm mistaken, I'm sure someone will correct me.
