I downloaded my copy from TUWien
I always download from the torrents, have had too many problems from the mirrors (none from the torrents and that way is faster too).
However, if the MD5 passed then I expect that your download is OK. If not, you can fix it with a torrent client without having to download everything again.
I strongly suspect that your problem could be that you did not burn at low speed. I don't like that this is important, but it really is. I've proven this time after time. Occasionally a high speed burn will boot, but it is far less reliable than a low speed burn.

Verifying of md5 checksum and burning a CD at slow speed are important.
