After you have installed your chosen OSes, add the following file to the root directory of NOOBS to force the indicated partition to be booted at power-on.

Add a text file named autoboot.txt to the root directory of NOOBS.

Add boot_partition=<partition number> to the file and save it to disk.

This will also prevent the splashscreen from being displayed at boot. The partition number can be found by running sudo fdisk -l the partition will be one of the FAT32 partitions /dev/mmcblk0p6 would be partition 6. Note that once an autoboot.txt file is present, there's then no way to force the NOOBS GUI to display, until you delete (or rename) the autoboot.txt file.
