Yes. The menu is there to make it easy for you to boot FreeBSD with or
without ACPI, in safe or default mode, etc. You can always get a
bare-bones boot by setting the following in your /boot/loader.conf file:
beastie_disable="YES"
Then you will have to manually set acpi_load="NO" or other boot loader
stuff that is quickly accessible from the menu, if you need something
like that later on, but it's ok.

To get a graphical logon screen, you need to enable xdm or another
desktop manager in /etc/ttys. This is described in the Handbook.

What are the exact modifications you made?
What path was the Xsession file you modified in?
