Dec 10, 2010 at 1:12 comment added Theo Johnson-Freyd Following Qiaochu's comment, my approach would be something like: find a faithful permutation representation of the binary tetrahedral group that feels roughly like two triangles barely intersecting.
Dec 10, 2010 at 0:51 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez (My two last comments use off-by-one indexing...) For $n=6$, GAP gives up after using 3GiB to build the coset table.

Dec 10, 2010 at 0:12 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez ...and for $n=5$ GAP's coset enumeration seems not to stop.
Dec 10, 2010 at 0:02 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez For $n=4$, the group is an extension of the simple group $O(5,3)$ of order $25920$ by a cyclic group of order $6$.

Dec 9, 2010 at 23:40 comment added M T for n=3, this is the binary tetrahedral group of order 24, a split extension of the quaternion group of order 8 by a cyclic group of order 3
Dec 9, 2010 at 23:36 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez (One can ask exactly the same last question for the quotients of all Artin braid groups corresponding to finite type Coxeter matrices by the cubes of the simple reflections... I am not greedy)
