Understanding storage on embedded devices

I'm finding it difficult to understand how storage is addressed on embedded devices...eg terms such as nand and mmc.... My ongoing project of getting FreeBSD working on GoFlex Home unit has stalled because I don't understand how uboots work. I know I can boot from internal memory, USB, Sata or Network and where I boot from is set by various parameters passed to uboot. I'm trying to follow instructions for updating the bootloader which has a link to
http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/
Code:
cd /tmp wget http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/install_uboot_mtd0.sh 
chmod +x install_uboot_mtd0.sh 
./install_uboot_mtd0.sh

Here is the shell script which needs to be run - not sure what mtd0 is, or what flash and nand refers to

Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Install uBoot on mtd0

I would run this but the instructions say
Remove any USB devices and reboot your device. After connecting to it with SSH, run the following commands:
referring to the above - the problem is I can only manage to boot from USB.
 
It's a linux script, it'll be hard to port it to FreeBSD.

It doesn't need porting since it will run under Linux. As I understand it U-boot is something like a BIOS for embedded systems and is able to launch various OSes.
