I have a cronjob nonroot which is set to run at 2:01:00 and a second cronjob which is set to run at 2:05:00 every day, 7 days a week. Code:1 2 * * * rm -r /media/tuxthegreat/Backup/transmissionCode:5 2 * * * cp -R /home/tuxthegreat/.config/transmission /media/tuxthegreat/BackupMy friend casually commented that there is a better way to handle such things using sysstemctl but I have no clue as where to start and how to create a systemctl service to accomplish such a feat. Any help would be greatfly appreicated guys :)
