See a sample NAND MTD partition table from the kernel logs:
Creating 7 MTD partitions on "NAND 256MiB 3,3V 8-bit":
0x0000000c0000-0x000000100000 : "misc"
0x000000100000-0x000000600000 : "recovery"
0x000000600000-0x000000900000 : "kernel"
0x000000900000-0x000000a00000 : "ramdisk"
0x000000a00000-0x000004d00000 : "system"
0x000004d00000-0x000009000000 : "cache"
0x000009000000-0x000010000000 : "userdata"

Flash your images starting at the below addresses as per the above
partitions.
0x0900_0000     ramdisk-uboot.img
0x0A00_0000     system.img
0x9000_0000     userdata.img

> 2)What should be the configuration for the bootargs if any.

bootargs should be something like this:
init=/linuxrc console=ttySAC1,115200

bootcmd should be some thing like this:
nand read c0008000 600000 400000; nand read 20800000 900000 100000;
bootm c0008000 20800000
