I did the same. When I do a devinfo, I get: 

uboot:/ devinfo
devices:
|----cs0
|----mem
|----nor0
|    |----self0
|    `----env0
|----ram0
|----eth0
|----phy0
|----nand0
|    |----nand0.uboot
|    |    `----nand0..uboot.bb
|    |----nand0.ubootenv
|    |    `----nand0.ubootenv.bb
|    |----nand0.kernel
|    |    `----nand0.kernel.bb
|    `----nand0.root
|    |    `----nand0.root.bb
|----defaultenv
|----filesystem: /
|----filesystem: /dev

drivers:
imx_serial
 partition
 fec_imx27
    miiphy
nand_device
  imx_nand
 cfi_flash
   imx_spi
   mc13783
       mem
       ram
       rom
   nand_bb
     ramfs
     devfs

Now, when I use the cp command, I get

uboot:/ cp env/config dev/nand0.uboot.bb
write: I/O error
uboot:/

Is the the right way of doing it, or is there any other step I am missing out. 
I tried the same with the Samsung device but it gives the same error.

Thanks in advance.
