OK I found the problem: 1) to reload fstab, close all cygwin processes, including X, 2) cygdrive should not be called multiple times in fstab. The right fstab file is: none /cygdrive cygdrive binary,posix=0,user 0 0 f:/ /mnt/f ntfs noacl,nouser,binary g:/ /mnt/g ntfs noacl,nouser,binary h:/ /mnt/h ntfs noacl,nouser,binary i:/ /mnt/i ntfs noacl,nouser,binary It seems that no error is output if the usb disks are not present and that they are auto-mounted when plugged in later. Also it seems it does what I wanted: permissions are just inherited from parent root dir.
