Here's the batch file I use to run cygwin off a network computer from
any
computer on our network.  You can modify it easily enough to run from
removeable media I expect.  I'd pass the drive letter as an argument to
the batch file.  Change the //cecsfp/cygwin and \\cecsfp\cygwin to your
drive letter.

Hope it helps,

%CYGB%\mount -bu %CYGR%/bin /usr/bin 
%CYGB%\mount -bu %CYGR%/lib /usr/lib 
%CYGB%\mount -bu %CYGR% / 
%CYGB%\mount -buc /cygdrive
