At the DOS prompt,A:\> C:,then hit enter. Prompt should change to C:\> . Being not familar to Linux,at thia point your C drive commands should be accessable. If not ,change drive back to A and try "A:\> [enter commands without the brackets] C" then enter. Let me know how you make out. Try www.bootdisk.com for a Linux bootdiskfor DOS.

If you had your C: partition NTFS formmated
you may need to format format C:
Or fdisk and repartition
