The way to grow a partition is to use growfs, however you cannot enlarge the root partition while it is in use. Usually this means going down to single user mode via a usb rescue image or the sort while having the root filesystem unmounting, resizing the partition with gparted/fdisk and then enlarging the filesystem with growfs. As these boxes are headless and do not have a console, it is not possible to do this. This is why the firstboot- packages exist, to do this on boot before the filesystem is mounted. However, it doesn't appear they are working as intended.
