Ok  now I understand better...
So syslinux need to know what is the kernel that have to be installed...

<  I'm uncertain what you mean by "virtual kernel"

I mean the kernel that is running on the computer (I used 'virtual' inappropriately, because it is loaded from a special support - the CD used for the procedure of  restoring - and not is loaded from the HD that is installed on the computer).


What abut to purpose (-the finality-) of the procedure that begin when I click the key "escape"...
When I am using the CD with the iso image of Fedora live ?
What I gain at the last of this procedure ...?

No. Syslinux is a bootloader. Its job is to find, load, and execute a
kernel. There are derivatives isolinux, extlinux, pxelinux.

I'm uncertain what you mean by "virtual kernel" but if you mean a
virtual machine, you wouldn't use a virtual machine to repair the file
system on the drive. If you need to fix virtual machine image
filesystems, then you can use guestfish to access the image's
filesystem to run fsck. Guestfish is in libguestfs-tools package.
