This option is only available when the ipod is runnign ios 5 or later.
Otherwise you update as always.
Open itunes, connect ipod.
Unfortunatly I do not have 50 hours to wait for Itunes to start downloading the software then quit then start up, over and over again.
Try a manual install using the instructions here. You have to know your iPod model/generation to select the correct download
