Normal Freerunner boot problem...

My NOR and NAND images seem fine.  I first thought that my NAND was messed
up.  Here is the problem.

Freerunner, GTA02v5 or 6, the date code on the phone is 6/20/2008

- CAN *NOT* boot with Power button only - (see image).
- can boot up the NAND boot loader
- CAN *NOT* boot from the NAND boot option - (see image)
- can boot NOR boot loader.
- can boot kernel with NOR boot menu option

The NAND boot error reads:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NAND read: mtdparts variable not set, see 'help mtdparts'
incorrect device type in kernel
'kernel' is not a number
Wrong Image Format for bootm command
ERROR: can't get kernel image!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am assuming that the Power button problem is the same as the NAND boot.

Any help with instructions will help.  Also, I am primarily a windows user,
please don't throw stones, but I will try my best if the only solution is to
fix it from Linux.
