Just got my Pi zero W to go next with my Rpi4B running pihole. Now I am having issues with installing the oled screen (Waveshare 1.3" 128x64 OLED SH1106). Spent a whole day trying to find some instructions for beginners and as I could not find any I am coming here for help!
So far the best instructions I've found are here:

I have tried to follow the instructions on the official Waveshare website, found lots of github instructions, heck I even found some on amazon questions. None of this worked, the screen is blank and not showing anything.

Real newb here whoβs picked up some basic coding but doesnβt understand half the commands Iβm using in the terminal or why. I want to figure out why Ubuntu had no/boot/config.txt file, or why itβs empty and nothing was configurable? Thanks!
For dual booting look to PINN - I prefer one OS per card as there is less chance of a card error hitting lots of operating systems / running out of space / deleting the wrong partition.

Dual Boot Venus OS on a Raspberry Pi?
You should be able to achieve that by using PINN. It's an operating system and boot manager for Raspberry Pis (plus more features that you probably don't need).

How to dual-boot (like with grub on a laptop)?
After more reading: The "Raspberry Pi Imager" seem to have something similar called "PINN". Is PINN similar to BerryBoot? https://github.com/procount/pinn/blob/master/README_PINN.md

WIFI error rpi4 raspberry pi os/lite
I would not use NOOBS at all now - its way old and PINN is a better option if you do not use multiple SD cards.

Why does Imager require admin rights?
You could have a look at https://github.com/gitbls/sdm for image management or PINN as a NOOBS replacement.

Raspberry Pi bootloader enables OS installs with no separate PC required
NOOBS is deprecated and no longer maintained or recommended by Raspberry Pi. If you still want a NOOBS like installer then use PINN which is an enhanced fork of NOOBS that is still under active development.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing PiDisplay and pinn you can also consider the following projects:
