Rebooting should send messages to your console - if you use some type of console connected to the system's serial port, then any logging would be found in that (example: my servers use conserver software - it logs anything going to the console in a log file set up via that software).

You can look at the man page for shutdown, boot, and init for info on the sequence - I didn't actually find anything that explains it (althought that may be due to the fact that there is no generic sequence since different servers boot up differently due to the hardware involved (E10K versus E4500 versus Netra).
