considering I work in IT I always forget my amiga-fu so this is for mt

Make sure fat95 is in L: OS 1.3.3 on floppy = put the spisd.device and the SD0 file (in the 1.3 v34.28+ folder) that is 461 bytes in Devs Make/obtain script file called Mount_SDCARD with contents (iconX important???) cd devs: mount SD0: from SD0 cd SD0: quit

on WB 3.1 just put the proper spisd.device, SD0 and SD0.info the Devs folder, and can double click SD0 to open.

i know it seems simple but i always struggle to remember that the devs folder is where i want it so it's a manual load

I got a strange behavior with my script (basically the same of yours) run by IconX. It returned an error (something like bad arguments iirc). But if I put a DIR command in the middle: cd devs: dir mount SD0: from SD0 cd SD0: then it works fine. I suppose the DIR command give a little delay and it makes the difference. But I'm just guessing, I don't know why it refuses to work without the dir command. ...but hey, it works, so it's OK for me :-)
