RZBoard Bringup

Question

Hi, I just got a RZ board and the card included with the kit mentioned a quick start guide at avnet.me/RzBoard. This redirects to, www.avnet.com/.../ which doesn't have any such guide. Could you direct me to one? 
 
 I noticed that the the linux partition is only 2.5GB of the available ~29ish GB. Any tips on resizing the partition?

Multiple technical docs will be accessible later this week under the product page at https://avnet.me/RZBoard-V2L : 
 
 RzBoard V2L Hardware User Guide 
 RZBoard V2L Quickstart Guide 
 RZBoard V2L Linux Yocto User Manual 
 RzBoard V2L Linux Yocto Development Guide 
 
 PS: To expand the size of your Linux rootfs partition, use the following steps: 
 Caution: A miss-step in this procedure can delete all files on your board! (Backup any data that you don&rsquo;t want to lose!) 
 
 Open a serial port connection to RZBoard's debug connector 
 Boot Linux and login to the board with user: root and password: avnet 
 Execute the command fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 
 Make note of the mmcblk0p2 start address displayed on the screen 
 Execute the following sequence of commands: p -> d -> 2 -> n -> p -> 2 -> < mmcblk0p2 start address > then -> enter (to accept default) -> N -> w 
 Now resize the partition using the entered settings: resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2 
 See the two screenshots below...
