I am trying to mount my ext4 (sdc6) partition from a live usb because that's how I deleted two unused partitions left from a prior install of ubuntu, using GParted. The swap is mounted. However, I can't edit fstab, or find anywhere to click in nautilus to mount sdc6. In the terminal, I get the error: "can't find /dev/sdc6 in fstab". I'm afraid to exit the usb and update grub if that partition isn't mounted. Is there any easy way to do this, or do I have to install gksu or some other editor? Or do I need to mount it as sda6?

Partition table entries are not in disk order.

Try this:
You may need to know UUID as normally the mount in fstab is or should be by UUID.
