Brake Booster question?

Still working the bugs out after my disc brake swap. But I noticed that with the engine off I have a fairly firm pedal and travel is about 1/2 stroke. If I put my foot on the brake and start the engine, as soon as it starts my pedal falls nearly to the floor and is softer. Not sure what to think.
