This is not really correct.
On the DK you can boot from NOR flash, and then the flash is extremely
important for U-Boot.
But the only really critical thing is if the location and size of the
environment sector mtches; as far as I can see the default location
has it at offset 0x50000, i. e. already in the "big" 0x10000 uniformly
sized sectors.
So replacing the flashes with a top sector type should be uncritical,
indeed.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
