Though, I do not enable APM. Is that needed also?
No, enabling both is calling for trouble.

Please note that the syslog can contain output of several sessions. One is
fully sufficient. You can e.g. search for a line "Welcome to the Haiku
boot loader!". The output for the session starts about 20 lines above that
with a line "options = 0". Normally the output for a single session
shouldn't hit the attachment size limit. If it still does, please zip it
(gzip, bzip2, zip,...).
> Also, I just found out that if I enter 'shutdown' without any switch, it
will shutdown the system. This is not expected behavior. Entering
'shutdown' without a switch should print out the same as 'shutdown -h'.
The current behavior is definitely the expected one. All commands that
don't need arguments should have a reasonable default behavior when
invoked without any. And it is kind of obvious what the default behavior
of the ''shutdown'' command would be.

freezes the system. System does not respond to keyboard or mouse input,
and I have to do a hard reset.

Yes please. Also check whether you can still enter the kernel debugger
(Alt-Sysreq-D).
