Do you have a serial console hooked up?

The big problem is that on non-serial-console devices we have little to
none influence on the boot process.
If you do not have a serial console you at least have to reflash the
kernel - sorry. The rootfs on internal NAND can stay as is but you will
need a different kernel image that has the SD card as rootfs compiled
in. And you probably want to use the 2.6 kernel anyway.
If you have a serial console then you can use uboot to tftpboot a
different uImage and instruct it to use the SD card as rootfs.
