Nope. You need to be running a Linux distro like Debian or Ubuntu with a GUI and package manager available for updates. It's not going to work on minimal Linux distros like CoreELEC and LibreELEC.

Adding to what Awesome Donkey said, I don't see a need for a special version of Linux.

I think OP might be asking for something like the JRiver ID as a software package, i.e. I think he wants a JRiver-based home theater appliance OS software (similar to LibreELEC).  Do you all still offer the Id as a USB stick/sd card or has that been discontinued?

As far as I know the Id SD card is only for Raspberry Pis.
