[Help] Macintosh HD volume not mounted

Currently I don't have access to another machine, so reinstall is not an option, though it's the clear way to fix. So here's my problem: Macintosh HD not mounted, or at least not discovered by Command Line Tools installer.

My machine: 4720HQ, Mojave + Win + Linux. After installing Paragon, and uninstalling it, somehow these problems pop up:

  • Command line tools update can't be installed: The Macintosh HD (disk2s1, APFS) isn't displayed.
  • In the /Volume folder, only the Volume of the DMG shows up.
  • diskutil reports that disk2s1 is NOT mounted, though this is exactly the OS partition. diskutil mount /dev/disk2s1 times out. ``` $ diskutil list

/dev/disk1 (internal, physical): #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: GUID_partition_scheme *500.1 GB disk1 1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk1s1 2: Apple_APFS Container disk2 204.1 GB disk1s2 3: Microsoft Reserved 16.8 MB disk1s3 4: Microsoft Basic Data 95.9 GB disk1s4 5: Windows Recovery 594.5 MB disk1s5 6: Linux Filesystem 199.2 GB disk1s6

/dev/disk2 (synthesized): #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: APFS Container Scheme - +204.1 GB disk2 Physical Store disk1s2 1: APFS Volume 180.8 GB disk2s1 2: APFS Volume 45.0 MB disk2s2 3: APFS Volume 510.4 MB disk2s3 4: APFS Volume 3.8 GB disk2s4 ```

Another symptom: Spotlight doesn't work, but this is OK to me.
