Micron NAND need a reset command at boot and i.MX27's BootROM doesn't
send it when using external boot.
See the note in page 5 of this AN :
cache.freescale.com/files/dsp/doc/app_note/AN3672.pdf 

Internal NAND boot seems to works based on this thread (not tested
here) : https://community.freescale.com/thread/285717
