I'm not sure if you can use cygwin to mount the drive, but you can use the Ext2fs driver to mount the drive in windows natively and access it under /cygdrive/<driveletter>/ in Cygwin.

Ya i can mount it with Ext2fsd.. but not listed under /cygdrive/ in Cygwin. I mean, that drive is appearing under drive lists of "My Computer" but not appearing inside /cygdrive/ in Cygwin. – 4lvin Jul 26 '11 at 17:02
