the title for my post is [Micro2440] 0x3FA8000 for root partition and not
for toort.

Even on a 256M Flash you can't set the root size to 256M as there are a few
other things MAY have to go into flash.

For example (64M dev board):

0: u-boot              0x00040000      0x00000000      0
1: env                 0x00020000      0x00040000      0
2: kernel              0x00500000      0x00060000      0
3: root                0x03aa0000      0x00560000      0

3aa000 is 61472768.  The rest add up to 5636096, which comes to a total of
67,108,864.  If you have u-boot in NOR I guess this could give you a bit
more room.

There was another post recently where the owner realised that he REALLY did
have a 1GB flash not 256M as he thought.  

Part number on your flash?

Are you using the a u-boot from buserror?

Part number?  Magnifying glass and read it off the flash chip.
