I'm in! I tried several tutorials to do that and I can't get it working. If
someone knows how to do it please post it. If I find everything that work
I'll tell you guys.

U-boot is a bootloader. It just starts up the mini2440 and needs to boot
something else - either from nand, mmc or the network. What are you trying
to boot and where is it? There are tone of tutorials to set up u-boot for
open embedded over mmc and tftp
for u-boot this one is good
http://code.google.com/p/mini2440/wiki/MiniBringup
and this one is for another bootloader (you can read it for some bootloader
funda)

Wingz, I tried the forum you posted but with no success. I compiled u-boot
and then uploaded it from supervivi to several ram position acording
various tutorials (like 0, 0x33f80000, 0x32000000, 0x31000000) but
everytime I execute go <mem position> it get stack.
If I turn the switch to nand position and boot the board I've got the
u-boot menu, but it get stacked when I execute "nand createbbt".
I'm a little bit lost at this point. If you can give me some clues I'll
appreciate it. 
Thanks.-

nand createbbt can take ages on the 1gb mini2440. :D 20 - 25mins is what it
  usually takes..don't worry.. its not stuck! 
just keep the nand createbbt command running till it completes..

everything worked fine while i was executing uboot in ram, but after
copying it into flash, and booting the board in nand flash mode, the board
is sending junk at serial, and no booting is taking place ????? what's
wrong with the u-boot !!!!!!!!!!! help :(

Have a look around:
http://billforums.station51.net/
the topic was covered there.

Oops, I see it is already mentioned above so you have probably seen all
that stuff already.

There are other solutions, unless you really want to use u-boot.
