 board_parser.py will collect all board related info and then generate a board info file for acrn-config host tool usage.
 
-usage: python3 board_parser.py <board_name> [--out board_info_file]
+usage: python3 run.py <board_name> [--out board_info_file]
 
 board_name : the name of board that run ACRN hypervisor, like apl-up2/nuc7i7dnb. It will be used as name of the board configurations folder which created by acrn-config host tool.
-board_info_file : (optional) the name of board info file. if it is not specified, a name of <board_name>.xml will be generated under ./out/ folder by default.
+board_info_file : (optional) the name of board info file. if it is not specified, a name of <board_name>.xml will be generated under the current working directory by default.
 
 Please run this script under native Linux environment with root privilege.
