I thought I had heard that you could create sub accounts on Chrome OS, like accounts for your kids, but nothing is coming up in search.
Let me keep digging.

if you're talking about accounts you log in to at the sign in screen,
then you can log in using any valid account (assuming you know the
user & password).

if you're talking about local accounts (i.e. unix accounts on the
machine itself), you need to switch to a vt, log in as root, and then
use the standard Linux utilities for adding/managing accounts (which
in turn modify the files in /etc). make sure you remote / as
read/write first because the default is read/only and attempting to
modify those files results in obtuse errors (like failure to
manipulate authentication token).
