What app can fix an ATA drive with an "Invalid Node Structure" disk error.
Boot in single-user mode (Apple+s) and run fsck -y (or fsck -f if drive journalled). Repeat fsck routine until no errors found. If that doesn't fix it, DiskWarrior almost certainly will.I looked is up and fsck (which I have never used before) won't fix it.

Good 'ol Disc Warrior works again! I haven't used it in so long I almost forgot I had it.
While searching for exactly what an invalid node structure was, I saw enough comments relating to fsck not able to repair it that I decided not even to try. DW took a l-o-n-g time but the drive contents are preserved. Not much important data to be saved but avoided having to update the OSes had I initialized and reinstalled. It's an original 4 GB ATA drive being relegated to an emergency boot drive.
Thanks, Mike
