"Input/Output Error" . Run the "dmesg" command immediately after
this error, and see what it reports last (end of command output).

Most probably disk is badly damaged, dead or dying. It's advisable to
try to create an image of the disk on another one, and work for this
image, because this disk will probably die any time now. It's no use
trying to repair a filesystem on a bad drive, which is the cause of the
errors from the beginning.
If all you care is to get your files back, just try to mount the volume
in read-only, non-recovery mode :
mount -o ro,norecovery /dev/sdc2 /tmp/mount
Then proceed by copying whatever you can get. Consider that any file
that gives an error is lost.
The other option is Kroll Ontrack or similar services, of course.
