Which type does the second partition have in the MBR partition table? If it is 0x76 (like Amithlon uses), WinUAE should see it as a seperate drive in the Add Harddrive list. If it doesn't, it's a bug in WinUAE.

If the type is different, it won't be seen by WinUAE. Then it might be possible to make a mountlist for the second partition with the SD card added as entire drive to WinUAE. You would first have to find out the starting point of that partition from the PC partition table. Then you would have to read the Amiga partition table which I suspect is necessary to use PFS3. From there you can create a mountlist, adjusting the cylinder numbers from the Amiga partition table with the offset from the PC partition table.
