I saw a suggestion somewhere: Create a folder on the cygwin drive for the drive you want to access, e.g. $ cd / $ mkdir d
for the d:\ drive. Then mount /cygdrive/d/ on that folder: $ mount d:/ /d $ cd d ls should then give you a listing of your d:/ drive. I just tried it and it seems to work. To unmount it use: $ umount d:/ Hope this helps.
