Hi Atakan

for using nand one can follow sect.4.5.7 Booting from NAND attached Linux Guide.

For programming images please use mfg tool from below link

i.MX Software|NXP 

Kernel or rootfs is the same but check that nand driver was

included in image, use sect.33.3.1 Menu Configuration Options attached Linux Manual.

In uboot select CONFIG_SYS_USE_NAND  in uboot/include/configs/mx7dsabresd.h

uboot-imx.git - Freescale i.MX u-boot Tree 

Best regards
igor
