The switch `-e` implies that by default only 1000 lines are shown.

       -e, --pager-end
           Immediately jump to the end of the journal inside the implied
           pager tool. This implies -n1000 to guarantee that the pager will
           not buffer logs of unbounded size. This may be overridden with an
           explicit -n with some other numeric value, while -nall will
           disable this cap. Note that this option is only supported for the
           less(1) pager.

Does `journalctl -b | grep -i callboot` show something? `-b` only shows log
messages for the current boot.

Kind regards,

Paul
