Hi.

First of all, ubuntu-doc is not a support list, you should have
subscribed to ubuntu-users instead.

As for your issue, the LiveCD doesn't write anything at all in your
system and everything is loaded into memory. You have an corrupted
boot loader that's why ntldr isn't found at all. You might want to
check out this page to see if you can recover your ntldr:
