Currently you need to define the page-size of the NAND used for booting (512 bytes vs. 2k). The 2k 4xx NAND booting support is was done about 1/2 a year ago. So perhaps you tested this when this 2k support was not available yet.
We are running 1.3.0, so you are probably right. It may no longer be a problem.
Yes, I would recommend to do it this way if possible. A small NOR for U-Boot and environment and everything else in NAND. This makes things much easier. But I understand that this is sometimes a problem with space (2 FLASH chips) and costs.
Mainly cost. We didn't want to pay for a second chip.
