if CFG_NO_FLASH is defined, as you said, means there are no flash memories, where do initial boot instructions located?
For example in RAM. Think of a PCI card which is plugged in a host system, where the host runs some software to upload some code into the PCI card's memory which then gets executed. See the PN62 board for such a configuration.
There are several other methods to load U-Boot into RAM - for example by using an initial bootstrap loader as used on some system to boot from NAND flash or dataflash.
