My changes were simple - I used the setuptex file that came with 
standalone, and tweaked it ever so slightly.

https://gist.github.com/gatesphere/0afaf5c2c647430ff653

Save that as .setuptex in ~ (home directory) then add the line

source /home/PeckJ/.setuptex /cygdrive/c/context/tex

to .bashrc, and you should be good to go.  I did install 
(first-setup.bat) from a Windows shell, however, and that took a few 
tweaks because I'm behind a corporate firewall, but that's a different 
story all together.

Hope this helps,
