There are two ways to do this. You can use libertine to manage a chroot where you install all these tools, as already mentioned, which is generally the better option. Another way is to just manage a chroot manually yourself, roughly per the instructions in my answer at http://askubuntu.com/a/623311/50737 Doing things to the root partition such as remounting read/write and using apt to install things there is very ill-advised. The root partition is small and read-only for a reason. Installing needed tools in a chroot on the home partition (or an external SD card) will give you a lot more space to work with, and you won't end up making your device unbootable by filling up the root partition.
