Pretty much, there is no relation.

Maybe you're wondering about why some directories or files (on partitions that 
can be shown by df) might allow certain things (reading, writing, ...) by some 
users and not others?

If so, you have to learn about the permissions -- try an ls -al on some file or 
directory that you have questions about -- if that helps pinpoint your 
question but you need some help in understanding, ask a question about that.
