[Buildroot] mini2440 MTD partitions uncorrectable error

[Andrei Ehrlich <an3e@gmx.de>]

Thanks for the note. I boot from NFS, but the NAND device on the Board 
was formatted and configured the U-boot. The solution for my problem was 
disabling CONFIG_FTL option in the kernel config (thanks to Peter K.)

Regards
Andrei
