MRTG initially plots bytes in and out for a physical interface on a router 
or switch.
You are using it to plot something else. Fine.
You have used OID1&OID1 with the Option NoO which suppresses the "Out" 
graph, just leaving the "In" graph, which is a good way to plot just one 
line.
The Target line can read Target[filename]: OID1&OID2:community at IPaddress
Then it will plot OID1 and OID2 on the same graph. (remove the NoO option)

Thought.
%disk used is a value between 1 and 100
Freespace is a number between 1 and 100,000 (according to you maxbytes 
line)
If you plot these on the same graph, I strongly suspect that your %used 
will disapear as a smudge on the bottom line.

Another thought
Do you know the OID for %free disk? mainly I think people use OID maths to 
calculate it. Then it would be a lot harder to put both on the same graph 
(if using simple MRTG, with Routers2 & RRD it would be much easier)
