According to your bootloader details you are at a good starting point. Here is what I recommend you do from here:

1. Download a custom recovery like TWRP:

2. flash this in bootloader mode. If you don't know how here is the help thread you need to read through:

3. Once you have a custom recovery installed, you can flash SuperSu or other root app (google is your friend.)
4. Stick with the rooted rom you have or flash another of your choosing.

I use EZT toolkit....It runs the commands then said fail (too many links

Why are you using a toolkit to flash recovery???

Just download from http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/evita

or download the unofficial TWRP from the original android dev section if you plan on flashing an AOSP or CM based Rom and then fastboot flash recovery recovery_filename.img

Easy peasy. Too many links is an error that should have nothing to do with flashing recovery...

Donno, Maybe fastboot/drivers or messed up. I keep getting cannot load 'recovery.img' unknown error

You need to type the filename of the recovery file you download. Either the recovery filename you are typing is wrong or the file is not in the folder you are trying to flash from.
