Do  you have a u-boot.lds in board/ti/am335x? That should put s_init() earlier 
in the boot. Also, include/configs/am335x_evm.h should have 
/* Custom script for NOR */
#define CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT             "board/ti/am335x/u-boot.lds"

Before using JTAG, take a look in System.map where s_init is located. For a 
multiplex NOR it should be in the first 64K of address space.
