Where to find larger B3 pdf manual?

Dear B3 users,

I recall reading somwehere that there is a PDF manual which is more detailed than printed "Getting started" book which was in the box I got my B3 with.

There is much about the B3 which is new to me and which I only stand a hope of understanding with a more detailed manual. One example is the hard disk device listed below:

root@b3:/home/storage/music# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on

...

/dev/mapper/bubba-storage
35369716 187272 33385736 1% /home

Why is it apparently not partitioned when I look at it with:

fdisk /dev/mapper/bubba-storage

?

Hopefully the answer is in the PDF manual.

:?

Here's the manual:

The bubba-storage device is an logical volume (google LVM), it isn't a traditional partition.

Thanks for that link to the pdf document psand and for the link to the equivalent html document before that RandomUserName. Hopefully, I will find nearly all of the answers I need in those documents.
