Steps to burn multi-session CD in LINUX as root :

Step 1: Make ISO images
             $mkisofs -r  -o cdimage.raw files

Step 2: Burn Cd with cdrecord              
              $cdrecord -v -multi speed=4 dev=0,0,0 -data cdimage.raw

Step 3: Make ISO images to further add data to multi-session CD

             $ mkisofs -r  -o cdimage.raw -C a,b -M /dev/cdrom files
                  where a,b is the number the following command
                  gives
             $ cdrecord -msinfo dev=0,0,0

Step 4: Further Burning(Multi session) the CD
             $cdrecord -v -multi speed=4 dev=0,0,0 -data cdimage.raw

                  Note: The value 0,0,0 can be different for you. This
                  identifies your cd-writer. To get the number execute
                  following command as root
             
             $cdrecord -scanbus

             Also the value a,b in Step 3 will be different for 
             different sessions. The value for speed will depend upon 
             your CD-writer
