Just figured out how to solve this, now Elastic Beanstalk supports running a privileged containers and you just need to add the "privileged": "true" to your Dockerrun.aws.json as the following sample (please take a look at the container-1):

{
  "AWSEBDockerrunVersion": 2,
  "containerDefinitions": [{
    "name": "container-0",
    "essential": "false",
    "image": "ubuntu",
    "memory": "512"
  }, {
    "name": "container-1",
    "essential": "false",
    "image": "ubuntu",
    "memory": "512",
    "privileged": "true"
  }]
}
