Try am335x_barebox_entry() instead of barebox_arm_entry(), it will
read back the configured SDRAM size from the SDRAM controller. Make sure
you don't have a /memory node in your device tree conflicting with the
real amount of RAM (i.e. when you have a board with 512MiB and your
device tree contains a /memory node with 256MiB then you will have
conflicts during startup, most likely barebox will bail out in the MMU
startup). Just delete the /memory node from the device tree, barebox
will create it automatically later.
For a full runtime SDRAM size detection you could call
am335x_sdram_init() with different setups and call get_ram_size()
afterwards. I'm not aware of other tricks on AM335x. How does U-Boot do
it?

"detect mmc0" should generally work. If it doesn't my guess is that the
pinmux is not configured correctly. When you boot from MMC then the ROM
configures the pinmux and the SD card works in barebox aswell. When you
boot from Nand then the pinmux is missing. Just a guess, could be clocks
aswell or something else.
