Describe the problem

After upgrading to version 2.0.21 I can't run the php artisan boost:update or :install anymore.

The problem seems to be with the following file: vendor/inertiajs/inertia-laravel/resources/boost/guidelines/core.blade.php

Full error:

   Illuminate\View\ViewException 

  Call to undefined method Laravel\Boost\Install\Assists\Inertia::pagesDirectory() (View: /xyz/storage/framework/views/93dd1b762f2927fece5039c9b2cac4fe.blade.php)

Can you try updating to boost 2.2.0 by running composer update laravel/boost and see if it's still happening ?
