I don't think that model is a PnP so you have to pass some additional information to the kernel instead of just saying "device cy0". Take a look at the documentation that comes with the driver. You can grab the latest FreeBSD3.x driver from: ftp://ftp.cyclades.com/pub/cyclades/cyclom-y/freebsd/ There is no dir for 3.2 but the 3.0 version SHOULD work also.
