Bug Description
As described in bug 707127, u-boot will still read the environment out of NAND flash when booting from SDcard which is less than useful since the saved environment probably doesn't contain the commands required to boot from the SD.
When booting from SD, u-boot should not be loading the environment out of NAND by default.

I'm not yet convinced that we should always ignore the NAND content when booting from SD, but checking for the user button seems to be enough at the first boot, but still doesn't work well when the user just reboots the board.
At Ubuntu we only recommend the user to erase the NAND content if he just want to use the default from the SD card.
