How come I only started off with one miner? Digging takes forever.

You can assign who does what before you start your game, bro

Oh, didn't know that. I just created world with default parameters and hit play now. I'm trying to follow that tutorial posted early on in this thread.

I'm living in a fortified mountain base, and I want to fight stuff, but nothing has happened.
I think the area I chose was calm, does this mean I won't see any combat at all?

It can take a while before the goblins take notice of you. The calm surroundings are just the wildlife.
After the first goblin ambush party/siege you can expect annual sieges. You can also seize elven caravans. After you do it enough they will get pissy and attack you. But in the mean time you will get lots of free items. :)
