I'm not sure about F16 since it use grub2, but for the previous releases 
including F15 gptsync was necessary to produce a MBR that (somehow) resembled 
the content of the GPT (F<=15 use grub legacy, which cannot handle GPT 
partition tables but only the traditional MBR). You can start gptsync from the 
rEFIt boot menu, AFAIK there is no need for an additional boot disk. The 
option for that is called "Start partioning tool" in the second row of the 
rEFIt selection screen.

HTH, best
