After partitioning my drive with cfdisk on the live installation media I then proceded to make sdc3 and sdc5 ext4, however, when I ran the command "mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc3" I got the error "/dev/sdc3 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!" so then I ran "mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/sdc3" to force the operation but it returned the same error when I don't even have the drive mounted.
My "fdisk -l" output was ;

My "mount" output was;

I then tried it on another pc I had Arch Linux installed on and got the same stuff (the drive was sdb on this pc);

So what do I need to do to make these partitions ext4?
EDIT: I discovered that after I use cfdisk in the livecd the output changes for "mkfs" and ""lsblk" before cfdisk the output for the error of "mkfs.ext4" is "Error: error checking /dev/sdb3 status: No such file or directory" and "lsblk" is http://sprunge.us/EgaB after I use cfdisk the output of "lsblk" is http://sprunge.us/FJPF
