I assume - no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover 
Texts? or did you desire something else?

Since Front-Cover Text is limited to 5 words, and Back-Cover Text is limited 
to 25 words - how about (as Back-Cover Text) "This manual includes sections 
from the Das U-Boot documentation, which can be found at 
http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot and is copyright it's authors. Included under 
the Free Documentation License (v1.3)"
