FreeBSD 5.2 and ACPI

[bsd hack]

Hi,
   I am building a custom kernel with FreeBSD 5.2... I need to disable ACPI (otherwise the system fails to recognize the disk!!)
 ... so is it fine if I just do a make and then a make install of the new kernel and then add hint.acpi.0.disabled to /boot/loader.conf  ? or is anything to be done before doin a make and a make install?
 
any help will be appreciated. 
 
Thank you.
HKR
