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).
