There is no file /dev/cdrw that would point to an optical drive.

Get a list of reachable optical drives by
  xorriso -devices
or
  xorriso -device_links
On Linux, the drives must offer rw-permission to be reachable.

>From an ouput line like
  0  -dev '/dev/sr0' rwrw-- :  'TSSTcorp' 'CDDVDW SH-S203B'
derive the drive address
  /dev/sr0
so you can run
  xorriso -as cdrecord -v dev=/dev/sr0 blank=as_needed grub-img.iso

If you only have one optical drive and use a modern Linux kernel,
then /dev/sr0 is a safe guess.


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
