I think we may have been talking about different things.

I guess by 'internal memory' means free space on the 'userdata'
partition.

Basil was saying that the prebuilt image gave him 14GB unallocated
space, and using l-a-m-c with the three tarballs used all the disk which
is what he wanted, and asked for the prebuilt images to be the same.

However, the extra disk space  get's allocated to the last 'sdcard'
partition and doesn't change the sizes of the other partitions. Those
are hardcoded in l-a-m-c I believe.
