Ubuntu 18.04 - mongodb 5.0 install - (code=dumped, signal=ILL)

Question

I'm trying to install MongoDB Community Edition 5.0 on Ubuntu 18.04 using these official instructions. However, when I get to sudo systemctl start mongod step to start the service, it gives me following error doing sudo systemctl status mongod

mongod.service - MongoDB Database Server
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/mongod.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: failed (Result: core-dump) since Fri 2021-07-30 18:50:50 CDT; 5min ago
Docs: https://docs.mongodb.org/manual
Process: 125616 ExecStart=/usr/bin/mongod --config /etc/mongod.conf (code=dumped, signal=ILL)
 Main PID: 125616 (code=dumped, signal=ILL)

Jul 30 18:50:50 mongodocker.cigi.illinois.edu systemd[1]: mongod.service: Main process exited, code=dumped, status=4/ILL
Jul 30 18:50:50 mongodocker.cigi.illinois.edu systemd[1]: mongod.service: Failed with result 'core-dump'.

I've tried uninstalling mongodb sudo apt-get purge mongodb-*, deleting the directories /var/lib/mongodb & /var/log/mongodb and installing from scratch.

NOTE: I'm going with default configurations specified in /etc/mongod.conf

dmesg shows following

traps: mongod[125616] trap invalid opcode ip:56330c9ed3da sp:7ffece242670 error:0 in mongod[563308adc000+5021000]

Thanks @SURJIT KUMAR, but, we can need purge with:

sudo apt-get purge mongodb-org

and,

sudo rm -r /var/log/mongodb

sudo rm -r /var/lib/mongodb

p/s: follow by: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/

It's working with me, many thanks.
