Wait, what? I think, you have the property line wrong.

```ini  
[Match]
Property="ID_NET_LABEL_ONBOARD=Onboard ETHERNET Controller"

[Link]
Name=onboard 
```

and

```ini  
[Match]  
Property=!"ID_NET_LABEL_ONBOARD=Onboard ETHERNET Controller"
Driver=oak

[Link]
Name=oak-interface
```

Does this help?
