[PATCH] powerpc: Add run_cmd function to boot wrapper

Add a boot wrapper script function run_cmd which will run a shell command
quietly and only print the output if either V=1 or an error occurs.

Also, run the ps3 dd commands with run_cmd to clean up the build output.

Hi Michael,

How about something like this?  It seems a little cleaner.
