You can’t run Appium real iOS device on the Linux. If you want to run Appium on iOS real devices you need mac os or you can run the Appium on the cloud for example:
https://www.browserstack.com/app-automate

There is commercial software which allows you to test real, physical iOS devices on Windows or Linux using Appium (or a modified version of Appium).

An example (in which I’m involved) is quamotion/appium-docker-ios container, which you can use to test iOS devices with Appium on Linux. See https://github.com/quamotion/appium-docker-ios for more information.

You’ll still need an Apple code signing certificate and provisioning profile, though.
