Thanks for the explanation, Rickard. However, it turns out the issue was that my source AMI filter string for 18.04 is no longer specific enough to pull down the image that I want. Having made the filter more specific, it is returning the standard image at 8 GB, rather than the Kubernetes image which is 20 GB.
