According to your logs, sdc1 is a Windows NTFS partition, not an EFI
system partition.  If it were though, and you want to install the rest
of the system to a different drive, then you need to choose manual
partitioning and configure it yourself.  Also your installation medium
contains a mix of trusty, wily, and vivid.  You need to format it and
start clean when loading a new distro onto it.
