Very primitive but very effective. I set mine to run once every five minutes, which means that after a reboot for the first hour I get spammed with alerts that the box has been rebooted. You might want to adjust it to check maybe once every 15 minutes.
#!/bin/bash
#
# Check uptime and mail if uptime is less than 1 hour.
#
UPTIME=`gawk -F . '{ print $1 }' /proc/uptime`
MINS=$(($UPTIME/60))
HOURS=$(($MINS/60))
DAYS=$(($HOURS/24))
# Unhash below line for testing.
#HOURS='0'
if [ "$HOURS" -lt '1' ] ;
then
uptime | mail -s "`hostname` has been rebooted" email@uplinkzero.nospam.com ;
