We're only going to echo the same advice you've been reading all over the boards in the first place... install and play with linux on a spare computer, read documentation. We can help with more specific questions, but what you're asking for now has filled many large books. That's a bit much to say in a bbpost.

ard-parse-boards
ARD-PARSE-BOARDS(1) General Commands Manual ARD-PARSE-BOARDS(1)
NAME
ard-parse-boards - Read data from the Arduino boards.txt file
USAGE
Dump all the data in the file:
$ ard-parse-boards --dump
See which boards we know about:
$ ard-parse-boards --boards
Look for a particular board...
$ ard-parse-boards --find uno
multiple terms are implicitly ANDed:
$ ard-parse-boards --find duemil 328
Dump all the data for a particular board:
$ ard-parse-boards atmega328
Extract a particular field:
$ ard-parse-boards atmega328 build.f_cpu
DESCRIPTION
The Arduino software package ships with a boards.txt file which tells the Arduino IDE details about particular hardware. So when the user
says he's got a shiny new Arduino Uno, boards.txt knows that it has a 16MHz ATmega328 on it. It would be nice to access these data from the
command line too.
In normal operation you simply specify the tag given to the board in the boards.txt file, and optionally a field name. This program then
extracts the data to STDOUT.
Most boards have names which are quite unwieldy, so we always refer to a board by a tag, not its name. Strictly the tag is the bit before
the first dot in the boards.txt key. You can see a list of board tags and names with the "--boards" option.
OPTIONS
--boards_txt=[file]
Specify the full path to the boards.txt file.
The following options all disable the normal 'lookup' operation.
--dump Dump the complete database in YAML format.
--boards
Print a list of the tag and name of every board in the file.
--find [query] <query> ...
Find matching data. Strictly, return a list of values which match all of the query terms, treating each term as a case-insensitive
regexp.
For example:
--find 328
List data containing 328 (anywhere in the value).
--find due
List data containing 'due' (e.g. duemilanove).
--find 328 due
List data containing both 328 and due.
