Wei-Wei,

Most of the packages, if not all the packages, come with a 'Vignette'.
http://www.bioconductor.org/docs/vignettes.html
If the list of Vignette is a little intimidating, especially when new
to R, you may want to have a feel for can be done by looking at one of
the workshop material
http://www.bioconductor.org/workshops/
(the one in Bressanone, Italy, had all the material online I think).

When it comes to data mining/exploratory data analysis with R, there are
several books covering different aspects of the topic.
You can also pick some of the online documentation, like for example
http://www.cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/usingR.pdf


Hoping this helps,


L.
