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.

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.

You could have a look at https://github.com/gitbls/sdm for image management or PINN as a NOOBS replacement.
