Thanks for you reply..
Actually, I am able to write on a CD-R Hence as far as
hardware goes there is no problem.
The problem got resolved. By default when you issue
the command that I mentioned it takes the highest
speed supported by the CD-RW.
Now when cdrecord tries to erase the CD at this speed
(which in my case was 10x) gets into problem (for
reasons not know to me yet).
I tried to erase the CD-RW with speed=4 option and
this time I could erase the CD.!
