Sorry if this question has been asked many times before. On a new CentOS 7 system, when I create files they end up with strange permissions.

What on earth is going on, and how can I fix it?

I'm sure I don't have an answer, but the last time I saw something like that the problem was related to a fat or vfat file system (I believe). What type of filesystem is "/"? What is the output from 'df -Th' ?
