I have never installed any package there since the system is very customized. In any case, I have put binaries or changed the configuration.
To do this, you must enter through ssh (user pi, password raspberry) and remount the file system:
'sudo mount -o remount,rw /root_bypass_ramdisks'
Under the /root_bypass_ramdisks directory you can edit something and it will survive the restart.

Good point for Oscar Fonseca [1]
Moreover after the remount you can run
sudo chroot / root_bypass_ramdisks
and after run what you want in apt
