cygwin on a disk?

- Subject: cygwin on a disk?
I use cygwin at home and work all the time and I love it. Many thanks to
all the developers and contributors.
I have a 64MB removable USB drive, about the size of a pen. I would like
to minimally install cygwin on this drive and and take it from computer
to computer. The idea is to simply plug the drive into the USB port of
any Windows machine and have my personal cygwin environment there to
use. I won't have the same Windows account on these machines (if at
all), but I'd like to use the same cygwin login and home dir.
Is there something about the way cygwin works that will prevent this?
Has anyone made "cgywin on a disk" ?
How could I do this, what do I need?
-Kevin
