Slitaz 5.0 Dial-Up Support

I'm looking forward to the release of Slitaz 5.0 stable, and I have plans to install it on my Dell Optiplex GX240, Pentium 4, 1.8GHz, 1GB RAM. I have not tried any of the release candidates, and I'd like to know in advance if Slitaz 5.0 will support dial-up networking as good as Slitaz 4.0. I'll be using a USB 56k modem for dial-up access. Slitaz 5.0 will replace Windows XP SP3 on the Dell Optiplex GX240.

Slitaz 4.0 is, by far, the best Linux distro I've used. I like the developers' minimalist coding solutions most of all; the "less is better" concept. The TazPkg Package Manager is unique and ingenious, making package installation very easy. I also like the relatively small size of the package repository, and I hope that the repository will remain small enough to be contained on a single DVD.
