Ah, right! I'll do that in next version. Btw, I hope to have OneNAND board version too, so I would be able to test that as well.
Also, as we're changing the memory map, I'd like to change the reserved space for SPL to 2M instead of 512k, so we cover all NAND block sizes from (64KB to 512KB)
What if we do that dynamically? It is not problem in U-Boot as we are already running FDT fixup, so adding one more shouldn't hurt too much. And we need to run 'spl export' anyway to fixup RAM size, so it is not problem for falcon mode, too.

About the new layout you propose the following, right?
volume 0 is u-boot.img, 1 and 2 env, 3 kernel, 4 FDT, 5 rootfs (ubifs)
Yes, that's right. U-Boot does not care about volumes above 4, it is purely Linux thing, but I'm using it that way (and somewhere in distant future I'd like to run database directly on top of UBI volume)
It's not possible load the kernel and the FDT from the rootfs directly, right?
UBIFS will certainly not fit into SPL size.
BTW, I created the 5 volumes and copied the files to every volume but I get following errors, do you know what I am missing?

I've never seen that. How did you copy files into volumes? Btw, I haven't tried doing that using U-Boot, but did: $ ubiformat /dev/mtd1 -f root.ubi (where root.ubi is product of PTXdist build) Later I used f.e. $ ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_0 u-boot.img to load files into volumes.
