Well, I think I have to try this, if there's really no other way. 
I'm not quite sure, maybe you know the PowerTAB Pro JTAG Debugger,
(it's recommended in the manuals) could this one get directly access
to NAND memory?

Uhm, it's possible that achieved that in an "indirect" way that I was
not aware of. But as I said, the complete flash and ram was empty, just
loaded 
the corresponding BDI config file to BDI2000 JTAG and I got access to
flash memory where I placed the bootloader image. Hmm, anyway ;)
