I use the following bat files to set up the required Cygwin mounts.
The bat files must exist in a directory which contains a Cygwin
installation under cygwin.  For example, the set up could be:

Flash drive as F:
F:\install.bat - Set up user Cygwin mounts, backing up any existing mounts
F:\uninstall.bat - Remove Cygwin mounts and restore previous mounts
F:\run.bat - Run bash
F:\cygwin - Cygwin installation

The bat files do not assume any specific drive letter.

I have the install script set up to mount the directory containing the
scripts as /home/user, then run.bat sets HOME to /home/user.  The
user's Windows TEMP folder is mounted as /tmp, to reduce writes the
flash drive.

I had to rename the .bat files to .txt to get Gmail to accept them as
attachments.
