Please don't make extraneous root directories.  It's against POSIX standards.  Make a /mnt/Windows if you have to, but please dont place it at the root.  The UNIX gods are spiteful, and will find a way to punish you for breaking the standards.

on most of my dual-boot systems i have the ntfs windows partitoin
available as /win or /windows for example, and pluggable devices usually
(automatically, i don't have to do anything for this) show up under
/media/$readable_device_name.
