How to read NTFS from MS-DOS mode

Comment:

I need flash DVD firmware from real MS-DOS mode. I make a DOS bootup disk from Win XP and startup PC into real MS-DOS mode. Now the problem is the PC have only one partition NTFS C: drive, the DOS mode can not read NTFS C: drive ( firmware file in C: ). Partition other drive with FAT32 OS ? Which software can do this way partition ? Is there other easy way I can do ?

If the file is not too big, you can copy it to the floppy and run it from there.
