Yes, it's a matter of ensuring that the device node /dev/sdc is
installed in the "chroot" filesystem; basically doing
# mknod $target/dev/sdc b 8 32

(see eg linux/Documentation/admin-guide/devices.txt)

If installing on a loopback filesystem you'd need to use the
major:minor of the loopback device while naming it /dev/sdc during this
installation.

.. and don't forget to remove that dev/sdc afterwards
