Did the user say if Cygwin is on a different partition than C: or D:?

If that's not the case, It's a bit hazy what it's trying to accomplish.
There's no way - not chroot, not quota, not protecting a MS-DOS partition,
would they be able to obscure the volume Cygwin boots from, standard mount
devices or not.
