[I'm not very experienced, but I'll try to help, so sorry by any mistake] As I know, there's no relation between them. Boot's block size is always the same, but you can change your fs' block size in /usr/src/linux/include/linux/fs.h, changing BLOCK_SIZE_BITS value (default 10, 'cause 2 ^ 10 = 1K). I think that once linux uses VFS, all fs are going to use the same BLOCK_SIZE.
