I have a series of patches adding reasonable support for S3C64xx to 
mainline u-boot, which should be able to boot a Mini6410 from an SDHC card 
(tested on a Tiny6410 with 256 MB of RAM, which should be compatible).

You can use my git tree at

https://github.com/tom3q/u-boot.git
branch s3c64xx

or look at the patches here

https://github.com/tom3q/u-boot/commits/s3c64xx

You will also need a patch to fix sector calculation in mini6410 sd 
flasher. I will post them later today.

Best regards,
Tomasz
