  So you set the size to be 80G here.

  But when the image is created it is 10Gb.

  Which is what is created.

  And indeed the size confirms it - the root filesystem is 10Gb,
 not 80.

  Seems clear to me at least:

    * You expected an 80Gb root filesystem.
    * You got a 10Gb root filesystem.

  So either your configuration file has a second size= setting, or
 you entered a command-line parameter which set the size to be smaller,
 or there is a bug somewhere..
