Do a "fastboot boot boot.img", then check everything out to make sure it is working. If you are satisfied, you can flash it with "fastboot flash boot boot.img". That should get you back to normal.
Then you can patch the boot.img with Magisk. Do the same thing with the patched image - boot it first, without flashing to make sure it works, then flash it.

Okay, before your comment, I did something that I think was incredibly stupid. I did do something like you recommend, but following the guide earlier. It said flash the system with the firmware. I tried to do that with the boot but there was no partition(I think) recognized. So what I did was check a video and see if there was an alternative. And following that video, I flashed the boot into boot_b. And now I cant access the recovery menu (but I can still access fastboot commands). And I think the device is stuck in bootloader mode...im unsure?
Uh did I fuck over my device because even if i go through fastboot and follow your commands I ecounter this FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error)
(and yes i changed the usb cable and moved it into a different usb port. I also installed a different ssd into the laptop with a fresh copy of windows 11)
