Positive ground, the starter doesn't care, the regulator, if designed for 6 volts positive ground, won't last as long with negative ground. A starter won't crank a stuck engine--something has to give, thus the smoke. Put the tractor in 5th gear and try to move it by pushing on the rear tire, see if the fan turns, if not it's stuck. It is possible that the starter is jammed against the ring gear, loosen the starter and push on the wheel. If the engine is loose, clean all your connections and reassemble. Take it out of gear. If the starter doesn't work then you have a starter problem. You may have ruined your regulator, also, but that shouldn't keep the starter from working.
