Help with cygwin mounts

I have been having a problem with mounting parts of the filesystem to
posix-paths. When i try to mount my local volume on /local i get this error:

mount: /vol0: invalid argument

this is the process i follow to try and mount:

mkdir -p /local                (make the mount-dir)
mount -s D:\vol0 /vol0    (mount /vol0 as a system mount)

Is this wrong? Im still very new to cygwin, i must be missing something...
