First of all you need speak accurately. There is no such thing as a 
NavigationController or a ViewController, and if you mean UIViewController 
there's no such as a button on one since a UIViewController is not a UIView. 
And then "go from" doesn't mean much either. Do you mean you want to draw a 
connection? Or that you'd like the user to be able to tap the button and cause 
a split view to appear?

I'd avoid storyboards if I were you; they actually just make your life more 
complicated. And I'd avoid UISplitViewController! They are poorly written and 
rather inflexible. On iOS 5 if you want to split the view into two, you can 
easily do better than UISplitViewController, because you're now allowed to 
write your own container / parent view controllers. Here's an example modeled 
after the iOS 5 iPad Mail app:
