Does anyone have an idea of why this command sometimes fails?

do shell script ("/usr/sbin/diskutil repairDisk " & destinationPath) password AdminPassword with administrator privileges

where destinationPath would look like '/Volumes/Macintosh Drive' and AdminPassword is the correct password.

Maybe it's the space in the name 'Macintosh Drive'

Just try
do shell script ("/usr/sbin/diskutil repairDisk '" & destinationPath & "'") password AdminPassword with administrator privileges
to tell repairDisk, that the blank is part of the path.
