the event.
i have search keywords like "error" and others in the log that i was

The cause of an unexpected reboot may be difficult to ascertain. Clues
may be found in the messages immediately prior to the shutdown, but not
if the shutdown was hardware related.
For example, someone may have pressed the reset button or there may have
been a power interruption. In both cases the machine would be working
normally with nothing in the logs until you start seeing the startup
messages.
On the other hand, if the machine rebooted for a software issue, you
would expect to see shutdown message before the startup messages. In
this case there may be log entries immediately prior to the shutdown
messages.
