So, in other words, either you are using the "download" rather than the
"install" option or, more likely, you have previously installed some
other package (like the NetworkSimplicity abomination) which reset your
cygwin mount table for you.
Probably if you search your system for bash.exe using Windows Find or
Search options, you'll find it in some other directory. Once you find
that, you should be able to find 'mount.exe' which will show you how
your mount table is screwed up. 'mount --help' will show you how to
reset your mount table and then you can reinstall things correctly.
