Assuming you're using mainline U-Boot and can rule out "vendor
problems", if you can access the SYSBOOT pins, set it up for a mode that
does NAND and UART. If you never see the 'CCC' on console (or only see
it the first time if you do UART then NAND), then you are starting SPL
and dying in there. If you just see a stream of C then your file is not
written to NAND correctly.
