X-Spam-Level:

running "mount --change-cygdrive-prefix /" will make all your drives be
subdirectories of "/" instead of "/cygdrive".

there is plenty about this if you search on google.  I also suggest reading
the cygwin faq from top to bottom - you'll find useful stuff that you
weren't even looking for.
