[Ultimate] Fastboot boot [name].img -> FAILED (remote: 'Unrecognized command boot')

[ZT-6ba223c6]

Please tell us some basic information before asking for help:
Model Name: ROG 5 Ultimate
Firmware Version: WW-18.0840.2107.151
Rooted or not: yes
Frequency of Occurrence: every time
APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app):
In addition to information above, please also provide as much details as you can, e.g., using scenario, what troubleshooting you've already done, screenshot, etc.
========================================
Is someone of you able to boot a recovery with the ultimate version?
I'm trying to boot TWRP but I always get the error
Sending 'boot.img' (98304 KB) OKAY [ 0.343s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'Unrecognized command boot')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Is there anything I can do about it?
Things I've tried:
* 3 different PCs
* 4 different USB cables
* all USB Ports
* different ADB/Fastboot versions
I searched all over the place but every solution so far fails - however I was not able to find an issue related to the Asus ROG Ultimate so maybe there is something special here?

Thank you I'll try that.

Didn't even know you can access fastboot.. Never tried that to be honest because the first thing I do is always to unlock the bootloader.

My last argument would then be "I said I'm rooted - root without unlocked bootloader shouldn't be possible" 😜

I know you did 😛

Thanks again... I asked there and got a solution. I feel so endless incredibly dump. I had to install the drivers twice. Once normally for the phone and one time again while it's in the bootloader. Never had to do that before with other phones so I didn't know it's "a different device" while in bootloader state.
