Hi,
         I want to use diskonchip on my embedded device. Then do I require a bootloader my linux OS from diskonchip into SDRAM? If so, what bootloader is best suited to load the linux os on x86 based architecture?

You should use EXT2.

There are filesystems like NFTL, TrueFFS. Why that filesystems all?
NFTL is Nand Flash Translation Layer for block device. It allows you to read and write logical sectors.
TrueFFS is M-Systems implementation of NFTL. But you need File System to write files on the DiskOnChip...
