the  easiest  workaround  is  to  run the following .bat file from your
windows command prompt:

================ create_cygdrives.bat ==============

for /f %%x in ('cygpath -w /') do set cygwin_root=%%x
mkdir %cygwin_root%\cygdrive
for %%x in (a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z) do mkdir %cygwin_root%\cygdrive\%%x

=====================================================
