I'm a little unclear on why you'd want to do this.... you can access
the first partition from Windows already.

But anyway -- why not format the second partition from Windows? That
is, hook the SD card directly to a Windows box (or a Linux box, or a
Mac, or any less-limited environment!) and format the second partition
there? In most cases, you'll even have a UI to help you out, and make
sure you picked the right partition, etc.
