It has probably been quite some time since the 16mb image was built and used.
The first thing to do would be to look at its current contents and try to see
where space is being consumed - the information produced for the image with
buildhistory (in particular installed-package-sizes.txt) should be useful for
that - see:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#maintaining-build-output-quality

If you could let me know what you find that would be great.

Cheers,
Paul
