u-boot for s3c2410 doesn't support booting from NAND flash, but assuming you
boot from NOR flash and have NAND enabled properly in the board config file it
does support the use of NAND flash.

In the NAND config you show in your email, it's probably a typo but it should be
CONFIG_CMD_NAND not CONFIG_NAND_CMD.

If that's not the problem - I'm not sure what board you're using. If you're
using an existing config file post the name of it, or if you're using one you've
created post the board config file itself.
