I just ran autonuke on my 1tb hdd. It was the only drive connected in the computer and it ran for 10 hours. When it was finished, it showed some message to select usb drive for log or press 0 to continue. I pressed 0 and it proceeded to an ad for blanco. So I shut the computer down and reconnected my boot drive. Now I can go into file explorer and open some of the files of the "nuked" drive? Did I mess it up at the end? I'm not sure what I could have done wrong. The screen before I hit anything said "autonuke successful" or something like that. Was I supposed to format the drive before I used dban?
Thanks

That's strange sounds like it's broken
run a "all 0's" fast / quick wipe - the more complex wipes can fail depending on certain variables
