Hi, Giacomo.

As you already understood, nandwrite is highly not recommended, use
dfu-util
As i didn't fall to this pitfall, really can tell exactly how to go out
of it. I am always using any uboot & envedit.pl to change environment
and flash images. I think, this should work from scratch, and should be
easy for anything except android (which has different NAND layout). In
anroid case one should just tune that dynparts to match android layout.

Define 'didn't work' please. Can you reach menu? Can you hear 'click' on
boot? To boot, hold power and then start holding aux, you should hold
aux longer than usual (this seem like some latest-svn uboot bug).

Of course, you should edit environment.in and cut everything what you don't need.
Mine current environment.in is not useful for anyone except me, so i'll not
prove it (i am using xfs and ramconsole).

If you need a bit more help on topic, we can talk on IRC.
