X68000 error on power cycle #50

First of all thanks for all the hard work on the BlueSCSI v2. Long story short what ever you did with the latest update BlueSCSI V2 now works flawlessly on SASI x68000's. I did find one quirk however is when you power cycle the machine you get a "Chk.Conn." error then "So Low SCSI Level". Hitting the reset button works fine. I'm using the 50 Pin Centronics version on a OG x68000 SASI Machine powered by an external PSU. I do also have the desktop version I planned to use in my Expert HD but I had the same read issues from the previous firmware so ended up going with a PiSCSI. I'm sure if I wired the Bluescsi to use the internal x68000 psu the issue would be resolved due to the Bluescsi power cycling with the machine instead of being on all the time, however not everybody would have the know how to do this. bluescsi.ini is as follows

[SCSI]
System="X68000"
Debug=1

Keep up the great work guys!

Issue still remains with latest release. Happy to provide any feedback/testing if required.

This is interesting because I saw a lot of people all over the forums complaining about X68000 not recognizing BlueSCSI right on the start and it gets recognized after reset or power cycle. I also use X68000 first model and use BlueSCSI v2 and it always boots up right after powering the machine up every time (I have v2-2024.03a centronics 50 PCB though). Maybe my hardware is lucky?
