I tried in both cases:

$ mount
C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
\\.\a on /dev/fd0 type user (binmode)
a: on /a type user (textmode)
c: on /ecos-c type user (textmode)
c: on /c type user (textmode)

home@DEFAULT /tmp/build/redboot
$ umount /dev/fd0

home@DEFAULT /tmp/build/redboot
$ mount
C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
a: on /a type user (textmode)
c: on /ecos-c type user (textmode)
c: on /c type user (textmode)

home@DEFAULT /tmp/build/redboot
$ dd conv=sync if=install/bin/redboot.bin of=/dev/fd0
dd: opening `/dev/fd0': No such file or directory
